Chickpea Loaf With Hazelnuts

---

A lovely savoury loaf with some extra crunch from hazelnuts! I made this for dh's vegetarian daughter this christmas - it was a big hit with the carnivores, too! recipe adapted from kasviskasari website. Eta: note that the potatoes must be grated very fine. The end result should be more like mash, not shreds - this way they won't be left uncooked.
