Gather Your Ingredients
Ready your kitchen with fresh parsnips, a medley of nuts including Brazil nuts, walnuts, and pecans, and vibrant spices. This roast promises a burst of taste in every bite
Begin by roasting your nuts in the air fryer at 300°F for about 8-10 minutes. This crucial step brings out a deep, nutty flavor making the foundation of our nut roast irresistibly crunchy.
While nuts cool, boil and mash parsnips, then sauté onions, chili, and garlic until caramelized. Add mushrooms, lentils, and carrots for a rich texture and taste.
Mix in breadcrumbs, fresh herbs like rosemary, sage, and thyme, and a dash of allspice, smoked paprika, and nutmeg. Stir in vegetable stock to blend all the flavors.
Process half of the roasted nuts into a fine meal. Roughly chop the rest and mix both with crumbled chestnuts and orange zest into your veggie mix, adding depth and crunch.
