Preparation
1
Garlic Time

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Cut the Tenderstem® broccoli into thirds.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add half the garlic. Cook for 30 secs.

2
Bring on the Flavour

Add the red split lentils, Worcester sauce, mixed herbs, ground cinnamon, red wine stock paste and chopped tomatoes to the pan. 

Stir in the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Bring to the boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until the lentils are soft, 25-30 mins. 

Stir occasionally to make sure the lentils aren't sticking to the bottom of the pan. Add a splash of water if it's a little dry.

3
Roast the Aubergine

Meanwhile, trim the aubergine and slice into 1cm thick rounds.

Pop the aubergine rounds onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and golden, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through. 

In the meantime, bring a large saucepan of water with ½ tsp salt to the boil for the broccoli.

4
Build the Moussaka

When the tomato lentil sauce is ready, stir through the butter (see pantry for amount) until melted, then transfer to an ovenproof dish. Layer over the aubergine slices

Spread the creme fraiche out evenly on top, then sprinkle over the cheese. Season with pepper.

Halve the ciabatta. Spread over the remaining garlic, drizzle with oil and season with salt

5
Get Grilling

Switch your oven to grill on high heat and grill your moussaka until the cheese is golden and bubbling, 5-6 mins. 

Grill the garlic ciabatta alongside until golden and toasted, 2-3 mins.

Meanwhile, when your pan of water is boiling, add the broccoli and cook until just tender, 3-4 mins.

Once cooked, drain in a colander, then return to the pan. Drizzle with a little oil and season with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and Serve

When ready, share the veggie moussaka between your bowls.

Serve with the broccoli and garlic ciabatta alongside.
