Mushroom, Rice & Tofu Mini Roasts

I’ve had these on the back burner for a while.  I was trying out some mushroom burger recipes and noticed I had half a block of tofu and some already cooked brown rice that needed to be used up so I added them in and the texture was lovely.  Rather than shaping by hand I used a muffin tray which gave them a nice crispy exterior and made portioning them out really easy.  Just as delicious cold as a light lunch with a salad or hot with mashed potato and gravy!

Recipe type: Main, Snack
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • 1 small onion
  • 300g sliced mushrooms
  • 1 tsp thyme or mixed herbs / oregano
  • 1 heaped cup cooked brown rice
  • 200g firm tofu
  • 1 tablespoon miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
Instructions
  1. Pulse the onion, mushrooms and thyme in a food processor until finely chopped but not a purée.
  2. Tip into a large frying pan, sauté for 7-10 minutes or until most of the liquid evaporates. No need to wash out the processor - put the rice, tofu and miso into the processor and pulse until well incorporated.
  3. Tip the contents into a large bowl, stir in the mushrooms and onion and mix really well until all the ingredients are completely combined.
  4. Pack into muffin trays. This makes enough for 6 small or 4 large roasts.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes.
  6. Cool for 5 mins, tip out onto baking tray and put back in oven for 5-10 minutes.
