Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 180°C or 160°C if fan assisted.

• To prepare the filling, melt the coconut oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the leeks, garlic, shallot and mushrooms and sweat for a few minutes until tender and fragrant.
• Whilst the vegetables are cooking, add all the sauce ingredients to a blender and process until smooth and creamy.
• Add the kale to the pan with the vegetables, stir and cook until just wilted.
• Add the cashew sauce to the pan and stir through the vegetables.
• Divide the vegetables and sauce between two 4-inch ramekins.
• Sprinkle an even layer of the crumble over the top of each pie
• Transfer to middle of the oven to bake for 20 minutes until the tops are golden and the filling is bubbling and piping hot through.
