Meal idea...
For quick and simple plant-based meatballs, add a glug of water and a handful of oats to a food processor then blitz. Add the lentils, sautéed garlic, shallots, flour, tomato purée, vegan parmesan then season to taste. Blitz again, roll into small balls and shallow fry. Once browned, add your favourite tomato sauce and enjoy!
How to prepare
Squeeze the pouch to loosen the grains. For best results, heat through in a pan with a dash of water. Otherwise, tear a 2cm opening at the top and microwave for 45s at 900w, or simply enjoy it cold.
