Method
- Heat the oil in large, ovenproof casserole dish over a medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and seasoning and fry for 3-5 mins, stirring frequently, until starting to take on colour.
- Add the rosemary, thyme, garlic, tomato puree and bay leaves. Fry for a further 1-2 mins until the garlic is fragrant. Add the wine and simmer for 5 mins before adding the stock. Half cover with a lid, bring to the boil and simmer for 35-40 mins, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened. Remove the bay leaves, rosemary and thyme and stir in the kale and a splash of water if the sauce is too thick. Cook for a further 2-3 mins until the kale is wilted.
- Preheat the grill to high. Top the root veg with the slices of brie and sprinkle over the breadcrumbs. Grill for 5 mins until golden and bubbling. Sprinkle with parsley to serve.
