This bean and potato bake starts with one of my favourite things in the world - roast potatoes! A lot of potato bakes have layers of thinly sliced potatoes, but this version is much heartier, with big chunks of roasted potato instead. Just roast the potatoes in a big dish until they're starting to get crispy. Fresh cabbage leaves, baked beans, potato slices, white sauce and cheese are set perfectly on a baking dish and cooked till the aromas and flavours unite to create an irresistible dish, which lures young and old alike. Tip in the beans, tomatoes and a splash of water, and simmer until the sweet potatoes are.
