Ingredients

25 g (1oz) butter, plus extra for greasing
1 medium onion, finely sliced
1 garlic clove
700 g (1½lb) potatoes, peeled
1 granny smith apple, peeled and cored
2 Tbsp. whole sage leaves
1 tsp. wholegrain mustard
300 ml (½ pint) hot chicken or vegetable stock
Butter for greasing

Directions

1. Step 1
  Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4. Heat the butter in a pan and gently fry the onion for 10min. Add the garlic and cook for 1min.
2. Step 2
  Finely slice the potato and apple. A mandolin is ideal for this task if you have one but, failing that, a sharp knife will do just as well. Butter a 20.5cm x 20.5cm (8in x 8in) dish - about 4cm (1½in) deep - and layer the potatoes, apple, onion and sage, seasoning as you go.
3. Step 3
  Mix mustard into the stock and pour over the potatoes. Cover with buttered greaseproof paper cut to the same size as the dish and cook for 1½-2hr until tender.
