  • Add chopped herbs, cooked lentils and oats, mushroom stock, soy sauce, honey, and pickle, cook until it’s a thick consistency
  • Add the bulgur and pecans, and season as necessary. 
  • Line a pudding basin with greaseproof paper, spoon half of the mixture into the basin then fill with boursin. Top with the remaining mixture. 
  • Bake at 200 C for 40 mins covered then 20 minutes uncovered. Leave to sit for 20 minutes before flipping out onto a plate
