Ingredients
- 50g can anchovy in oil
- 2 tbsp of the oil from the anchovies
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- large sprig thyme, leaves picked
- 2 large swede
- 300ml pot double cream
- 3 tbsp fresh breadcrumb
- 2 tbsp grated parmesan
Method
- STEP 1
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Drain the anchovies but reserve 2 tbsp of the oil and heat it in a frying pan, then cook the onion for 10 mins until softened. Chop the anchovies and half the thyme, and stir them through the onion.
- STEP 2
Peel the swedes, then quarter and slice. In a large bowl, toss the swedes with the onion, two-thirds of the cream and some cracked black pepper. Tip the swedes into a baking dish, cover with foil and bake for 30 mins.
- STEP 3
Remove the dish from the oven, remove the foil, press down with a fish slice, then drizzle with the rest of the cream. Scatter over the breadcrumbs and Parmesan, then bake for about 1 hr more, until golden and the swedes are tender. Scatter with the remaining thyme.
