1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Rinse the drained beans,
place in a saucepan and cover with fresh water. Bring to the boil and cook
rapidly for 10 minutes. Lower the heat and continue to simmer the beans
until needed.
2. In a very large flameproof casserole dish, cook the onion in the oil,
over a low heat, until soft. Add the root vegetables and green pepper, and
cook until soft.
3. Drain the beans and add to the pan with the tomatoes and tomato pur.e.
Dissolve the Marmite in the boiling water and add to the pan to cover all
the ingredients. Season with salt, pepper and the herbs.
4. Bring to the boil, then cover. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1 1/2-2
hours, until the beans are tender. Season to taste, and serve with steamed
broccoli florets and jacket potatoes.

NOTES : A great way to start the week, this is also a good recipe for an
informal weekend party. It can easily be prepared a day in advance and kept
chilled.
