Hi all,
i am wondering if anyone can give me tips on how to make the harvest nut roast in the vegetarian book? I made it tonight and it tastes great but is not cooked properly and does not look like the picture. It is something i would like to get right as it is super healthy and tastes so yummy i think my family will eat it. I have perfected other things once i got tips so hoping to get this one right too. I think my errors may be to do with the bread and how much i ground up the nuts. i found the instructions did not mix it up enough so i had to mix it more than what the book said. have i overdone it and made it too sloppy? thoughts? comments?

I made the Nut Roast for the first time tonight. It turned out beautifully!
My tips would be:
* Tear the bread into really small pieces before you put it in
* I used about half the amount of milk called for, otherwise it would just be way too moist
* I scooped the mix out at the end and stirred it in a mixing bowl with a wooden spoon - the TM bowl was just too full and shredding everything on the bottom but not the bread on top
* It looks like it isn't cooked properly, but it is. It was hot in the inside and crispy on top, which was good enough for me. Its not like a meat loaf where the texture changes as it cooks.
* Its important to let it sit for a while before serving, and even after I'd sliced it and plated up, I noticed the middles was still thickening a bit as it cooled.
Hope that helps! :)
