Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C / fan160°C / gas mark 4. Add the onion, fennel, potatoes, courgette, red pepper, parsley and flour into a bowl and stir up with plenty of seasoning.

  2. Empty a third of the mixture out into a 1.5L ovenproof dish and spread out, dolloping over half of the ricotta and a third of the mozzarella.

  4. Cover with foil and bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes before removing the foil, layering on the remaining mozzarella and scattering the Cheshire cheese on top of that.
