175 g parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks

1 tbsp snippedchives
1 large egg

Method
1. Heat the olive oil in a large casserole and add the whole shallots, swede, carrots, parsnips and leeks. Fry over a high heat for 5 minutes until vegetables begin to brown.

2. Add the butterbeans, cider, sun-dried tomato purée, chopped tomatoes, dried mixed herbs, seasoning and crumbled stock cube. Stir well and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Meanwhile prepare the cobble topping.

3. For the cobbler: preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6.

4. Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and rub in the butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the grated double gloucester and the chives.

6. Transfer the cooked vegetables to an oven-proof dish and arrange the cobblers around the edge. Brush the tops with a little milk and bake for 20 minutes, until the cobble topping has risen and is pale golden. Serve.
