  • 1 tbsp tomato puree

Method

  1. Preheat a fan oven to 180 degrees C.

  4. Slice the sausages into rounds then add to the pan and cook until slightly browned.
  5. Cut the mushrooms into quarters and add to the pan, cooking for a couple of minutes to soften.
  6. Add the tomato puree and stir to combine, cooking for about 5 minutes.
  7. Add the hot vegetable stock and Marmite along with the picked thyme leaves and bay leaf.
  8. Cook for 5 minutes then add the lentils and cook until the sauce has reduced slightly and thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Transfer the hotpot to a deep sided baking dish then slice the par boiled potatoes and lay on top.
  10. Brush the potatoes with the melted butter and season with salt and pepper then bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until the potatoes have browned and the sauce is bubbling.
  11. Serve with your favourite veggies.
