  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Heat the oil in a lidded saucepan over a low- medium heat and fry the onion and garlic for 5-10 mins, until softened. Pour in the chopped tomatoes and stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
  2. Add the beans and potatoes, partially cover, then simmer for 15-20 mins until slightly reduced; season.
  3. Meanwhile, bake the garlic baguettes to pack instructions. Serve alongside the stew, scattering over the parsley and salad cheese.
