200ml vegetable stock
3 tbsp olive oil
2 small red onions, sliced
250g large flat mushrooms, sliced
250g carrots, peeled and cut into rounds
250g parsnips, peeled and cut into rounds

Step 4
Finely slice the potatoes into rounds. Boil for 5-6 mins until slightly softened. Drain and arrange the potatoes in rings on top of the hotpot, overlapping slightly. Brush with the remaining oil. Cover with foil and bake for 50 mins until the potatoes are just tender.
Step 5
Increase the oven temperature to 220°C, fan 200°C. Remove the foil and bake for a further 30 mins until the potatoes are cooked and golden brown. Scatter with fresh thyme to garnish. Then serve and enjoy!
