Simple Gascon sausages and beans Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/4 C olive oil
- 8 oz bacon lardons or fatback
- 12 good quality sausage, preferably Toulouse
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 celery stock, chopped
- 2 carrots, cut into small cubes
- 1 (14 1/2 oz) can tomatoes in puree
- 1 (14 oz) cans cannellini beans, one drained, the other not
- 1 1/8 C wine, chicken stock, or water (I used wine of course)
- 1 bay leaf, a small handful of parsley leaves, and the chopped leaves from 3 sprigs of thyme
- 2 tsp sugar
- salt and pepper
- 1 1/4 C fresh white bread crumbs
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350. Heat the oil in a frying pan and brown the lardons and sausage all over. Put them into a shallow broad casserole dish. Add everything else, except the bread crumbs, and season really well with salt and pepper. Sprinkle a third of the bread crumbs on top. Bake for 2 hours. Sprinkle on the rest of the bread crumbs in two separate batches during cooking time. Stir in the previous sprinkling of crumbs before adding the next batch.
- 2. Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning toward the end of the cooking time.
