For the Lentils:
To a large pot add the olive oil and heat on medium heat for 30 seconds before adding the onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning.
Once the onions are translucent add in the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes before adding the remainder of the ingredients. Stir the mixture till combined, bring to a boil then simmer with the lid on for 25 minutes. Check on the mixture every so often to ensure nothing is sticking to the bottom.**
While simmering, start making the Parsnip Mash.
For the Parsnip Mash:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then boil your parsnips until soft and fork-tender.
Into a high-speed blender add the strained parsnips and the rest of your ingredients. Blend ingredients. Use a blender tamper to push the ingredients down and blend continue to blend for around 1 minute or until perfectly smooth. Add more plant-based milk, 1 tbsp. at a time if your blender is finding it hard to reach that consistency.
To assemble:
Preheat your oven to 400F and grab a large baking sheet and 4 mini coquettes.
To a mini coquette, add some of the lentil mixture. You want to fill the pot over halfway but still under 3/4 to ensure there is enough room for the parsnip mash.
Dollop 2 large heaped tbsp. of parsnip mash on top of the lentil mixture. Use the back of a spoon to flatten and then carve horizontal and vertical marks on top of the pie with a fork.
Bake for 15 minutes before broiling for 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy with roasted vegetables!
