Instructions:

For the vegetable pate, soak the lentils in plenty of water for about 30 minutes. Then drain, rinse well and puree finely in a stand mixer with 150 ml water, salt, chili and the garlic cloves.

Wash vegetables, peel if necessary and cut into small cubes. Preheat oven to 160 °C convection oven. Heat a frying pan, add olive oil and fry the vegetable cubes, except tomatoes, for about 4 minutes until light brown.

Add the paprika, Italian herbs, salt and tomatoes and let them cool down a bit. Line a small springform pan (18-20 cm diameter) with baking paper and place the puff pastry inside so that the edges hang over the pan.

Mix the cooled vegetables with the lentil farce and pour half the amount into the mold, spread walnut halves (or chestnuts) on top, cover with the rest of the filling and smooth it out.

Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the filling and seal well. Brush with the vegetable milk and bake for about 1 hour. Serve the pie with a fresh, crisp salad.
