Ingredients
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1.25 lb cremini mushrooms, sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 carrot, finely chopped
- 1 large leek, finely chopped
- 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
- 0.5 cup dry red wine
- 1 (15.5-oz) can brown lentils, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 1 large pasture-raised organic egg
- 1 tbsp arrowroot powder
- 3 large parsnips, peeled and grated
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 12-in cast-iron pan over medium. Cook mushrooms 8 min, stirring, until soft and golden at edges. Season with 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper; remove and set aside.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in the same pan. Sauté carrot, leek, and celery 4–6 min until soft. Stir in garlic and thyme.
- Return mushrooms, stir in tomato paste and mustard. Raise heat slightly, deglaze with wine, scraping up stuck bits, and boil about 2 min until mostly evaporated.
- Stir in lentils, add stock, season with ½ tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper. Bring to a boil, cook 2 min, remove from heat.
- Whisk egg with arrowroot. In a large bowl, toss parsnips with ½ tsp salt and remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Stir in egg mixture.
- Scatter parsnips over mushrooms, leaving a ½-in border. Cover with foil and bake 15 min. Remove foil and bake 15–20 min more until golden on top. Serve immediately.
