Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Then, in a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shallots, carrots and leeks, cook and stir until vegetables are lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes.

  2. Add mushrooms and continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes until vegetables are softened.

  3. Add tomato paste and flour, cook and stir until paste markets about 1 minute.

  4. Add beer, bring to simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.

  5. Add the broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and plant-based ground meat, cook and stir until sauce is nearly evaporated, remaining mixture should look like gravy about 10-12 minutes.

  6. Scrape mixture into a 9×3 inch pie pan or a 2 quart casserole pan. Top with tots and bake until tots are golden and crispy, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
