"It is always nice to try some new vegetables or a combinations of vegetables. I like this recipe. It is lovely with a roast beef dinner. I like to use Panko crumbs but other bread crumbs will do. This dish may be made up to the point of adding the crumbs to the top then covered and be chilled up to 48 hours or frozen for up to a month. Defrost completely before baking. The recipe was originally posted on the BBC Good Food network"
