Vegetable Hotpot Food

VEGETABLE HOTPOT

Steps:

• Boil potatoes just lightly until about cooked.
• Place chopped veggies and garlic in a casserole dish or saucepan with 1 tablespoon oil and sweat veggies for 5 minutes. (This means to put them (preferably) in a covered frying pan and let cook on low for about 5 minutes -- just long enough to take a bit of the crunch off, but not enough to cook them entirely.)
• Do not overcook.
• Add the herbs and seasonings to the vegetables.
• Mix mustard powder, flour and tomato paste with water and stock until smooth.
• Pour mixture onto the vegetables and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to an ovenproof dish if necessary.
• Place the potato in a bowl with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and toss until coated.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Pile the potatoes on top of the veggies and bake in a preheated oven at 400 F for 45 minutes.
• The potatoes should be brown, but if they're not you can grill them for another 5 minutes.
• Serve with a salad or on top of rice.

LAZY CHEESY VEGETABLE HOTPOT

Steps:

• In a shallow microwavable dish toss the leeks in half the butter and cook on High for 5 mins until they begin to soften. Stir in the cabbage and mushrooms and add the crème fraîche. Lay the potato slices over the vegetables pressing them down with a fish slice.
• Dot the potatoes with the remaining butter and microwave, uncovered, for 15-20 mins on High until they are done. Scatter over the cheese and thyme, and either microwave on High to melt for 2 mins, or grill until crisp and brown. Leave to stand for a few mins and serve straight from the dish.
