Preheat the oven to 200c.

Thinly slice 1 large onion and set aside. Thinly slice 3 garlic cloves and set aside. Thinly slice 500g new potatoes, season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Cover the base of a deep oven dish with a single layer of sliced potatoes, then sprinkle with a few onion slices, garlic, some fresh thyme leaves, and dot with pieces of non-dairy butter.

Repeat this process, building up layers, finishing up with a layer of potatoes.

Mix together 350ml vegetable stock with 150ml soya cream and pour over the potatoes.

Add a few more dots of butter and cover the dish with a lid, or with foil.

Bake in the oven, on a baking tray for 50 minutes.

Uncover and bake for a further 20 minutes, till golden.

Serves 4 as a side dish.
