Equipment

  • Shallow, lidded casserole dish

Ingredients

  • 150 ml olive oil plus extra for greasing
  • 500 g waxy new potatoes peeled and cut lengthways into 5mm slices
  • 400 g carrots peeled or scrubbed and sliced lengthways
  • 400 g courgettes sliced lengthways
  • 1 large onion peeled and sliced
  • 300 g Tenderstem broccoli
  • 4 large tomatoes (or 6 medium) thickly sliced
  • 1 red or green finger chilli sliced
  • Handful flatleaf parsley chopped
  • A few thyme sprigs leaves stripped from the woody stalks
  • 200 ml passata
  • 100 g feta cheese crumbled
  • Salt and black pepper

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 190°C/Fan 170°C. Grease a roasting tin or a shallow, lidded casserole dish with oil. Spread the potato slices in a single layer and season well with salt and pepper. Layer the carrots on top, then the courgettes, then the onion and garlic, seasoning each layer with plenty of salt and pepper.
  • Scatter over the broccoli and cover it with tomato slices. Add the chilli, herbs and a final sprinkling of salt and pepper. Pour over the passata and the olive oil.
  • Cover the roasting tin tightly with foil or put a tight-fitting lid on the dish and place in the oven for about one-and-a-quarter hours. Sprinkle over the crumbled feta and return the tin to the oven, uncovered, for a further 15–20 minutes.
  • Allow it to cool slightly before serving as a side dish or as a main with crusty bread or rice.
