How to make Vegan Rice Roast:

  • To be able to make the vegan roast, you must do a series of previous steps. So, start by cooking the lentils in boiling water until soft. Drain and mash the third part with a fork.
  • Boil the rice with little water to ensure that it retains most of the starch. Drain when ready and reserve. Separately, fry the finely chopped onion and spring onion bulb in olive oil, together with the two garlic cloves. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, the balsamic vinegar, smoked paprika, thyme and ground cumin.
  • Now that you have everything ready, it’s time to prepare the vegan roast. To do this, mix the rice with the lentils and the sautéed rice with the oil. Also, add the tablespoons of cornstarch, rice flour, the barbecue sauce, the sunflower seeds and the well-chopped spring onion stems (if you have a food processor, better).
  • There should be a moist and well-bound dough. Check the taste in case you think you should add a little more salt. To try it, the quickest thing to do is take a tablespoon of dough and cook it over low heat in a pan with a little oil. Taste it and decide if it needs more flour, water, etc.
  • Spread oil in the mold that you are going to use and place the rice and lentil dough in it by pressing with the help of a spoon. Hit against the marble to avoid leaving gaps between the mass. Then, paint the surface of the roast with more barbecue sauce and bake it for 40 minutes at a moderate temperature.
  • When it’s ready, remove it and let it warm for a few minutes. Meanwhile, you can prepare the vegan gravy. To do this, finely chop the onion and sauté it over low heat in a saucepan with the margarine and a drizzle of oil.
  • When it starts to brown, add the peeled and minced garlic and cook for one minute. You can also add garlic powder if you prefer. After the time, pour the vegetable broth, the soy sauce, the yeast and the liquid caramel. Beat everything until you get a smooth sauce without lumps.
  • When you have it, let it boil gently. Separately, dissolve the cornstarch in a little water and add it little by little to the vegan sauce to thicken it. Add black pepper for a hint of flavor.
  • And ready! You can now serve the vegan roasted rice cut into slices and bathed with a little gravy. I recommend that you accompany it with sautéed spinach, it is a healthy, complete and, above all, delicious menu.
