Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease your baking dish like it’s your skincare routine — generous and glowing.
In a pan, heat olive oil. Add onion and garlic, sauté until fragrant and slightly golden.
Toss in mushrooms and cook until they release moisture and turn beautifully browned. Add spinach if using, and sauté briefly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk chickpea flour, almond milk, nutritional yeast, black salt, turmeric, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Mix sautéed mushrooms into the batter along with half the vegan cheese.
Pour everything into the baking dish and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top — because self-control is overrated.
Bake for 40 minutes until firm, golden, and slightly bubbly.
Let it cool for 10 minutes before serving — patience makes it prettier.
Slice, serve warm, and bask in well-deserved admiration.
