Add the lentils, beetroot, mushrooms, and seasoning and cook for 10 minutes on low heat. Once the beetroot and mushrooms are soft, add the dried cranberries, walnuts and bread crumbs and mix well. Set aside to cool.
Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper.
Layer 5 sheets of the phyllo pastry with vegan butter or olive oil and place onto the prepared baking tray. Spoon the filling downwards in the middle of the phyllo pastry. Layer the other 5 sheets in the same way as done previously and place it over the filling. Scrunch the two sides together to seal it and brush with more vegan butter or olive oil.
Bake for 15 – 20 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy.
