  2. 2

    Pour in dairy free cream (250 ml) and heat for 2 mins until bubbling. Season generously with [salt] and [black pepper] to taste. Transfer to a 1.8ltr gratin dish.

  3. 3

    In a food processor, pulse fresh parsley (3 tbsp), shelled pistachios (25 g), pine nuts (25 g), and sunflower seeds (25 g) until finely chopped with some chunky pieces.
