2. When cooked, drain the water and keep the liquid. Mash the vegetables and season.

3. Place in a piping bag with a star nozzle. Set aside.

4. In a large saucepan, heat the oil. Sauté the shallots, garlic, celery, carrot and fennel for a few minutes. Add the sliced and rehydrated mushrooms, chickpeas, butter beans, lentils, peas and tikka paste. Gently fold for an even coating of flavour.

5. Measure 100ml of the vegetable water, mix with the stock pot and season to taste. Pour into the vegetable mixture and simmer for a few minutes then add the spinach.

6. Spoon the mixture into a dish, pipe the potato mix on top.

7. Place in the oven, 4D hotAir 180°C for 40 minutes.

*Tip

If too runny, mix the cornflour with a little water then add to the mixture and boil to thicken the liquid.
