Method
 

For The Butter Bean Balls

  • Place mushrooms in food processor & pulse to roughly chop. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Place beans in food processor & blend until smooth. Transfer to the bowl with mushrooms.
  • Add thyme, garlic, spring onion, salt, pepper, rice & flour. Stir to combine & add just enough butter bean liquid to make the mixture moldable. 
  • Use wet hands to divide into 40g portions & roll into balls. Refrigerate to set.

For The Creamy Sauce

  • Heat oil in a pan, add onion, garlic & rosemary. Cook while stirring for a few minutes.
  • Add butter bean balls & cook, browning on all sides.
  • Add almond milk, mustard, seasoning & cook for 10 minutes.

For The Roasted Carrots

  • Spread the carrots on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil & stir to coat. 
  • Roast for 10 minutes @ 240'C until dark brown, even a bit burnt on the edges, but not fully tender.
  • Transfer to a bowl & leave to cool slightly. Add vinegar, salt & pepper. Leave to marinade for a few minutes.
  • Spread carrots out on a baking tray again, dab with bits of butter, sprinkle with sugar & roast @ 180'C until caramelized & tender.

For The Broccoli

  • Season steamed broccoli with salt & pepper, drizzle with olive oil & sprinkle with flaked almonds.
Chefs Tips
I would highly recommend adding some parmesan and mozzarella to the butterbean balls. The cheesy version of this will blow your mind!
