Over the years, I’ve experimented with different combinations of nuts, lentils and veggies in our loaves and, today, I’d love to share the recipe for one of our all-time favourites – RedLentil and Cashew NutLoaf with Cranberry Glaze
Nutritionalinformation is approximate, and will depend on exactly what ingredients you choose. I used plain white bread for my vegan sandwich, but as I was eating it I decided that something a bit crustier would have been even better – the redlentil spread and simple salad would be amazing in a baguette
Put lentils and water in a bowl and leave for at least 3 hours to soften Put the lentils and remaining water in the foodprocessor and let it blend for a couple of minutes Then add the salt to the salmon colored batter
This is the thought process that led to my Burns’ night drinks with little Scottish inspired snacks. And, as a Scot living in the Netherlands, I notice that not all of my countrymen are overenthusiastic about eating a meal which consists predominantly of offal
The man who gave us Auld Lang Syne and so much more will be remembered tomorrow and toasted with wisky while his Address To The Haggis is quoted the world over
For this recipe, to get more taste, lightly fry the onions before adding to the pot, however it isn't necessary, Add the lentils to the cooking pot, with the chopped onion and potatoes

India is what inspired this recipe, too. a couple of tbsp (coconut) oil for frying. As I saw my (slightly more travelled friend) leave a tip I almost fainted - the worldliness of it all just got too much for a small town girl from Lapland
The onions are basically raw, though they are "marinated" in salt for about half an hour, which softens them a little, as does the addition of the red wine vinegar I mentioned earlier
) Preparing a meal for raw ingredients is a wholesome activity and can be used as a time to think and contemplate – or just get really involved in the task at hand
