Method Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan. Fry the onion for 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the chopped garlic for the final minute. Heat the oven to 190C fan. Or use middle of Aga. Tip the onion and garlic into a mixing bowl with the drained lentils, mixed herbs, grated carrot, breadcrumbs, 200ml stock and cheese. Season generously with salt and pepper. Work the breadcrumbs and stock into the other ingredients with a wooden spoon. Tip the mixture into a lined baking dish (23cm across) Press the filling down firmly with the back of a spoon, ensure it's packed down. Sprinkle grated cheese over the top. Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until the cheese has turned golden brown. Enjoy the tact that your Vegetarian son and carnivore husband love this meal and your non vegetarian daughter almost likes it. Oh and don't forget to water the plants whilst it's cooking. You can really only afford to take five minutes off watering at the moment...
