Pre heat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas mark 4. Grease an oven proof dish well with the melted butter, starting off with layering the potato at the bottom of the dish, season and sprinkle with a few of the thyme leaves and juniper berries, then add a layer of onions repeating the thyme leaves and juniper berries. Then add the turnip and repeat with the seasoning, thyme leaves and juniper berries. Repeat until all of the vegetables are used up.
