Add the sliced mushrooms and continue cooking for 5 minutes, then season with sea salt, garlic granules, white pepper and continue cooking for 3 minutes. 
l Add the coriander, continue cooking for 1 minute, add the soy, agave or honey and cook for 1 minute, then take off the heat to cool. Spoon the vegetables into the pre-lined tin, and smooth them out egvenly over the base of the tin.
  • In a large mixing bowl beat the eggs until smooth, season with white pepper and sea salt. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed leeks and mushrooms.
  • Bake on the middle shelf for 23-25 minutes. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before eating. Serve with a delicious salad.
