Mushroom, Lentil, and Parsnip Rosti

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

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, for 8 minutes, until soft and golden at the edges. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set aside.
3. In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the carrot, leek, and celery and sauté until soft, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic and thyme.
4. Return the mushrooms to the pan, stir in, then add the tomato paste and mustard. Increase the heat slightly and deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping up any bits that stick to the bottom. Boil until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes.
5. Stir in the lentils, then add the stock and season with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes then remove from the heat.
6. In a small bowl, whisk the egg with the arrowroot powder. In a large bowl, combine the parsnips with ½ teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Stir in the egg and arrowroot mixture.
7. Scatter the parsnips all over the mushrooms, leaving a ½-inch border around the edge. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Serve immediately.
