A mineral package of the finest quality comes out of the oven here. The dish is completely meat-free and provides one third of the daily iron and magnesium requirement. Together with the minerals calcium and phosphorus, magnesium builds up bones and teeth and prevents muscle cramps.

Simply vary with broccoli florets or white beans - both taste extremely delicious. Instead of thyme, fresh chopped parsley is also suitable as an additional vitamin C supplement.
