LAYERED CASHEW AND MUSHROOM NUT ROAST



Layered Cashew and Mushroom Nut Roast image

This recipe was given to our family about 20 years ago and it goes very well with the vegetarian gravy from recipe 243433. This recipe is an excellent roast to have for a Christmas dinner. Most meat eaters will try it and proclaim they like it more than the turkey! I have often made double and frozen it to be used later on as it is a little long to make. Substitute the fresh herbs for half the amount of dried.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Use large, fresh carrots for the best flavor and texture. Avoid carrots that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Roast the carrots properly: To get the most flavor out of the carrots, roast them at a high temperature (425°F) for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Use a variety of nuts: In addition to cashews, you can also use walnuts, pecans, or almonds in this recipe. Just be sure to toast them first to bring out their flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the roast tough. Just mix it until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the roast rest before serving: This will help the flavors to meld together and the roast to firm up.

Conclusion:

Carrot and cashew nut roast is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. With its vibrant colors and nutty flavor, this roast is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
