Vegetarian Philly steak bake

Hi all
here's a recipe made tonight it's a vegetarian philly steak bake..this recipe uses quorn steak style pieces



Let's go then
you will need for the cheese sauce
25g butter
25g flour
aprox 600ml milk
grated vegetarian cheese of your choice
extra cheese to put on top
salt and pepper

For the filling
enough pasta for four people
300g packet of frozen quorn style steak pieces
1 medium red capsicum (pepper) diced
1 medium red onion sliced
2 Tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper

First put your pasta water on to boil and get your pasta cooking

Second make the sauce up whilst the pasta is cooking
in a saucepan add your butter and flour and cook out for good 2 minutes

add your milk a little at a time to make sure no lumps form stirring all the time the first couple of times you add the milk should form a ball like lump this is normal just keep adding milk a little at time so that no lumps form and the sauce will stay at quite a thin consistancy until you add the cheese..

once you've added all your milk cook for about 3-5 minutes this will thicken sauce only slightly take off the heat and add your cheese as much as you like until you have a cheese sauce your happy with mixing all the time.. I used two to three good handful of pre-grated cheese..
put to one side

add some salt and pepper as needed

thirdly in a frying pan add your oil and heat up
once hot add your onion and pepper fry off for little while about 5-8 minutes until onions and peppers are soft

add some salt and pepper not much there is some in your sauce

add your quorn style steak and cook for couple of minutes

At this time the quorn is not cooked it will cook in oven

put to one side until pasta and sauce are ready

Once your pasta is cooked mix with your quorn, onion and pepper mix and then stir in your sauce
make sure everything is coated and evenly spread through
put into an oven proof dish and add some more cheese on top
put into your oven and cook for about 25-30 minutes at about 180degree until golden and bubbly

serve immediately

well hope you enjoy this recipe we certainly did
