• time: 60
• servings: 5

Ingredients

• 110 g cashews
• 110 g peanuts
• 5 slices sliced bread
• 1 large onion
• olive oil
• 2 eggs
• 2 cloves garlic
• salt and pepper
• 50 ml vegetable broth
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp dried parsley
• 1 tbsp dried basil
• 150 g cheddar cheese

Cookware

• oven
• food processor
• rolling pin
• pan
• baking tray

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2. Crush or grind cashews and peanuts (roasted or spiced). You can use a food processor to save time then mix with the breadcrumbs. If you don't have all the proper equipment, put the nuts in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.
3. Make breadcrumbs from sliced bread (whole wheat, crumbled — 5 slices equals approximately 220g).
4. Dice then fry large onion in plenty of olive oil in a pan. When the onions have turned clear, add them (and all the oil) to the nut mix.
5. Add eggs, crushed or grated garlic, salt and pepper to taste, vegetable broth, dried thyme, dried parsley, dried basil, and cheddar cheese (mature cheddar is great) grated. Mix it again then knead well.
6. Let it stand for 5 minutes. Roll into a loaf shape.
7. Place in a baking tray and cook for 40 minutes at 180 °C (check it after 30 mins, you don't want it getting too dry).
