  • 2 brown onions (sliced)
  • 1 heaped tbsp plain flour
  • 480 ml chicken or vegetable stock

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 170°C (325°F).

  5. Cover the casserole with a lid or foil and bake for one hour.
  6. After an hour, stir in carrot chunks and layer sliced potatoes on top. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with thyme.
  7. Increase oven temperature to 200°C (400°F) and bake uncovered for another 30 minutes until potatoes are golden brown.
