    Barley and mushroom stuffed butternut squash

    Serves 6

    INGREDIENTS

    3 butternut squash
    300g pearl barley
    900ml vegetable stock
    200g mushrooms
    100g fresh tomatoes, chopped
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    50g fresh parsley, leaves chopped
    20g vegan Italian-style hard cheese
    Rapeseed oil
    Squeeze of lemon
    Cornish sea salt
    Freshly ground black pepper

    METHOD

    1. Preheat oven to 200°C.
    2. Halve butternut squashes and arrange on baking tray. Sprinkle with some salt and a few drops of rapeseed oil. Cook in the oven for 30-35 minutes.
    3. Cook barley by adding barley to a pan with 600ml vegetable stock. Bring to a boil over high heat. Keep an eye on the pot as barley will give off a lot of foam at first and can cause the pot to boil over. When barley has reached a boil, lower heat to a low simmer, cover, and continue to cook until barley is done, this should take about 25 mins.
    4. Add a splash of rapeseed oil to a pan and heat to a medium temperature. Add mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes with the lid on until they soften.
    5. Add tomatoes, garlic and cooked barley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook on low for about 10 minutes. Turn off heat and add chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon to the mix.
    6. Once squash is tender, scoop out seeds and some flesh, chop and add this flesh to the barley mix. Distribute barley mix evenly between them.
    7. Lower oven temperature to 160C.
    8. Sprinkle stuffed squashes with some grated vegan Italian-style hard cheese and put back in the oven to bake for another 15 minutes.

     

    Beetroot spelt risotto with roast carrots

    Serves 8

    INGREDIENTS

    2 large beetroots
    1 large onion
    4 cloves garlic
    45ml rapeseed oil
    430g spelt
    240ml dry red wine
    2 litres vegetable stock, for speed you can use Marigold vegan Swiss Bouillon powder
    6 heritage carrots, mixed colours if possible
    30ml maple syrup
    3g Cornish sea salt
    2g freshly ground black pepper

    METHOD
    1. Wash and trim beetroots, then place it in a saucepan of simmering water to cook for 30 minutes until soft. When done, remove from the water and allow to cool slightly before chopping into small chunks.
    2. Finely chop the onion and mince garlic. In a large stock pot heat 1 tablespoon of oil, when hot fry onion for 3-4 minutes until soft, then add the garlic and cook for another minute.
    3. Add in barley and cook for 1-2 minutes until covered with the onion and garlic mixture. Pour in red wine and allow the barley to absorb it completely.
    4. Heat stock to just below boiling and keep warm.
    5. Start adding vegetable stock one ladle at a time, allowing spelt to absorb all the stock before adding more. After 2 additions of stock, add in beetroot, and repeat the process of adding stock, stirring and allowing it to be absorbed until all the stock has been used. This whole process will take anything from 30-50 minutes. To achieve a creamy risotto, it is important not to rush this process.
    6. While the risotto is cooking, heat the oven to 180°C and chop the carrots into chunks. Coat with remaining rapeseed oil, maple syrup and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes until golden.
    7. Serve the risotto topped with some carrots and fresh greens.
