Too many meat-free Wellingtons collapse into a soggy, grey purée the moment a knife goes in, undone by watery filling and an underbaked base. This one is built to slice cleanly and look magnificent doing it: earthy roasted beetroot at its heart, a savoury mushroom-and-lentil layer for depth, tangy goat&rsquo;s cheese to cut the sweetness, and a burnished puff-pastry case that shatters.</p>Sun, 10 May 2026 13:30:00 +0000
