- 500g potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 medium onion, diced

- 2 C chopped mushrooms
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

- 1 1/2 C hot vegetable or mushroom stock
- salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 355°F (180°C).
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and carrot for few minutes until onion is soft and translucent. Add garlic and stir for a minute.
- Now throw in chopped mushrooms, season with salt and cook for about 5 minutes or until most of the liquid is evaporated.
- Finally add potatoes, nutmeg and black pepper. Stir well and switch off the heat.
- Divide potato-mushroom mixture between two individual pots. Pour vegetable stock so it almost covers the potatoes. Place bay leaf in each pot, cover and put in the oven.
- Leave your potatoes to slowly braise for 1 1/2 to 3 hours, the longer the better.
- Serve as a main course or divide it between miniature pots for a cute side dish.
