How to Make Veggie Lentil Pie

  1. Rinse the lentils and cook in 4 cups of boiling water until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Drain well.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. In a food processor, combine cauliflower, chiles, mushrooms, onion, tomatoes, brown sugar, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Pulse until finely chopped and well mixed.
  4. In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked lentils and the vegetable mixture.
  5. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread the lentil mixture evenly in the dish.
  6. Boil the potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
  7. Mash the potatoes with butter, eggs, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  8. Spread the mashed potato mixture over the lentil mixture in the baking dish.
  9. Sprinkle paprika evenly over the top.
  10. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
