Tasty vegan stuffing

Who needs packet stuffing? This recipe is simple and delicious and makes enough for 6 people…

150g wholemeal breadcrumbs

50g ground hazelnuts

1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage

1 medium onion finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 level teaspoon vegetable bouillon powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

freshly ground black pepper

olive oil (we use some home made chili oil – just get some oil and put dried chilies in it and leave to infuse)

Fry onions and garlic in oil on a gentle heat. When onions are soft add 200mls water, or white wine (or a mixture of wine and water!). Add the bouillon powder, paprika, breadcrumbs and hazelnuts.

Turn off heat and mix well. Add more liquid if necessary.

Add herbs, and mix well, before putting into muffin moulds (I used brioche moulds)

Cook at 180 degrees C for about 35 minutes until they start to brown.

Serve with your favourite veggie roast and enjoy!
