Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan. Add the chopped mushrooms and thyme and cook until the mushrooms are soft, about 4-6 minutes.
In a blender, grind half of the lentils, mushrooms, ground flaxseed and nutritional yeast to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

Heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Fry the meatballs, being careful not to touch each other.
