📝 Preparation Steps

Preheat the oven to 190°C fan / 375°F. Blitz the mushrooms in a food processor and until finely chopped, then spread out on a large baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Roast for 20—⏱️ 25 minutes, stirring halfway, until most of the moisture has evaporated.

Meanwhile, warm a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic, and cook for 15—⏱️ 20 minutes until softened and translucent.
