2 medium onions
1 bay leaf
A handful of fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
1lb 5oz/596g potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 red peppers, deseeded and sliced
1 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tbspn of marmite (although i didnt use this)
14fl oz/397g vegetable stock
salt and black pepper
6oz/170g reduced fat vegetarian cheddar cheese, grated
a handful of mixed herbs, finely chopped

1. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees/Gas mark 7. Spray a pan with fry light and sauteed the onions, bay leaf and thyme for 5 minutes or until softened and lightly coloured.

2. Spread a layer of potatoes over the base of an ovenproof dish. Layer over some of the onions and red peppers followed by another layer of potatoes.
Continue layering this way, finishing with a later of potatoes and a thin scattering of onions and peppers.

3. Mix together the garlic, marmite and stock and pour over the potato topping. Season, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for a further 30 minutes or until potatoes are cooked, the top is golden and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
