WHB #118: Mustard chicken with celeriac & carrot mash

The 118th edition of Weekend Herb Blogging 27.04.2021 ** is hosted by Claudia from Fool for Food 20.09.2023 **.
This week I write about the healty benefits of mashed root vegetables. They make a great alternative to potato mash. Celeriac is rich in vitamin C and folate, which is good for the heart. Carrots are a super source of beta carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A. They’re also high in phosphorus and silicon, which are important bone building nutrients. The mashed celeriac and carrots are accompanied with beans and mustard chicken.

Directions

1. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/Gas 6/fan 180C. Cook the lentils in boiling unsalted water for about 20- 30 minutes until just tender, then drain. Fry the onion, garlic and red pepper in the olive oil until soft (about 10 minutes). Add the ground coriander and thyme, and stir for 30 seconds or so. Now tip in the tomatoes, tomato purée and sugar, and season with salt and pepper. Leave to simmer to a thick sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 15- 20 minutes. Check seasoning, take out the thyme and stir in the basil.

2. Meanwhile, cook the cabbage in boiling salted water for about 3-4 minutes, until just tender. Drain, and run under the cold tap, then drain thoroughly again. Mix the cabbage and lentils with the tomato sauce, and spoon into a shallow ovenproof gratin dish.

3. Mix the breadcrumbs and cheese, and scatter over the mixture in an even layer. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil. Bake for 20-30 minutes until sizzling and patched appetisingly with brown.
