4. Turn them onto a plate to cool.
5. Mix the nuts, sesame and sunflower seeds together.
6. Finely chop the onions and garlic.
7. Heat the oil in a large frying-pan (skillet) on a low heat.
8. Mix in the onion and garlic and cook them until they are soft.
9. Take the pan from the heat and mix in the nuts, breadcrumbs, stock, tamari (Shoyu) sauce and herbs.
10. Press the mixture into a large, lightly-greased pie dish or souffle dish and smooth the top.

To make a tomato-flavoured nut roast add 30 ml (2 tbls) tomato puree or paste to the mixture instead of the tamari (Shoyu).
The roast can then be baked in a ring mould.
To serve, turn it out onto a flat plate and fill the centre with steamed broccoli or steamed diced green beans.
