1 bunch beetroot (about 5 beets), stalks trimmed½ cup McKenzie’s French Style Lentils1 x bay leaf1 ½ cups water500g pumpkin, peeled and chopped500g plain flour250g butter, cubed½ - 1 cup (approx) water1 tsp McKenzie’s Sea Salt Grinder

1 tbsp vegetable oil4 red onions, thinly sliced1 tbsp thyme, fresh2 tbs balsamic vineger2 tbsp brown sugar10g butter120g goats cheeseHandful of rocket leaves1 tbsp olive oil

Bring a large saucepan of water to boil. Add fresh beetroot and simmer for 30 – 45 minutes, until beetroot is tender. Remove from water, allow to cool, then peel and coarsely grate beetroot. Set aside.

Add lentils, 1 bay leaf and water to a saucepan. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer until tender (about 20-25 minutes)

Place pumpkin on a baking tray, spray with cooking oil and bake in a preheated oven at 18o0C for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile to make the pastry, place flour and butter in a food processor and blitz until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Combine water and salt and gradually add to food processor, blitzing until the mixture comes together in a ball. Do not add all the water if you do not need to, the pastry should just stick together. Lightly knead, wrap in plastic cling wrap and chill in fridge for 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry to 5mm thick and line a 30cm tart pan with pastry. Chill for further 15 minutes in fridge.

Line pastry with baking paper and fill with pastry weights or uncooked rice. Blind bake for 15 minutes. Remove baking paper and weights and bake for a further 10 minutes or until tart is golden and crisp. Set aside to cool.

Place medium sized saucepan over medium heat, add oil. Once oil is hot, add onions and cook until softened, stirring occasionally. Reduce to low-medium heat add thyme, balsamic vinegar, sugar and butter and cook for a further 15-20 minutes until thick and jam-like consistency is achieved. Mix the grated beetroot, lentils and pumpkin into the onion mix. Set aside.
