Quorn & Vegetable Hot Pot. The ultimate comfort food meal, perfect for Autumn and Winter but easy enough to whip up mid week!

Veggie Hot Pot with Quorn

The kids are finally back to school which is great news for us parents! But that does mean getting more organised with our meals and in particular with dinner. I’m keen to experiment with more easy but delicious comfort food recipes this Autumn that can be whipped up quickly and easily after school.

For this recipe I’ve teamed up with Quorn. As a family we have gradually been cutting down the amount of meat we eat over the past year and in particular red meat. Quorn Mince is a great alternative making the swap from beef mince easy and tasty too!

Quorn Mince has been certified with the carbon reduction footprint and so using it in our meals is a simple way we can help to reduce our family’s carbon footprint.

STEP 1:

The first step in this recipe is to make the potato slices for the top. I washed some Maris Piper potatoes and then cut them into slices about a pound coin in thickness. I’ve left the skins on to make the recipe a bit quicker and easier and also to retain some of the nutrition found in potato skins.

Simmer the potato slices in boiling water on the hob for about 10 minutes until they are starting to soften but are not completely cooked though. Then remove from the heat and drain.

STEP 2:

Next up is to make the Quorn and veggie filling for our hot pot. In a large casserole dish I fried some onions in oil then added garlic, carrots, celery and mushrooms.

STEP 3:

Next I added the Quorn Mince. It can be added straight from the freezer which is super convenient.

STEP 4:

The next step is to add some water, tomato puree, vegetable gravy granules and a red wine stock pot. The gravy granules help to add flavour to the dish and also create a lovely thick sauce. The red wine stock pot also adds tonnes of flavour but you can use a normal vegetable stock pot if you prefer.

Leave that to simmer for about 12 minutes on the hob.

STEP 5:

Once the Quorn and veggie mixture is cooked add the potato slices to the top and then sprinkle on some grated cheese. Pop into the oven for 180c to finish cooking the potatoes and get that cheese all melting and crisp. Yum!

The Hot Pot is now ready to serve straight away. I served it with some extra green veggies. Leftovers can be kept in a sealed container in the fridge for 48 hours and reheated until piping hot throughout.
