Swede dauphinoise in a baking dish

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.
