Cassoulet

I made cassoulet for dinner tonight and my parents loved it so I will try and recreate some of the recipe here. 

1. Make duck stock from a leftover duck.

2.  In large deep pan, cook a few slices of diced bacon.  Add a few thick slices of ham to that. And any duck from the duck you are making stock from (chicken works too)

3.  When browned, remove and add 4 sausages (chicken) I used two spicy tow regular.  Brown them. (You can add a little olive oil to keep pan from getting to dry.

4. Remove from heat and add one thin slices onion, and half a head of garlic (don't dice, just halve the cloves) sauté in pan. (Add a little olive oil to keep from getting too dry, also can add a little stock)

5. Remove and add to your growing pile of stuff.  Now add small carton of sliced mushrooms and 5 chopped carrots. Add some stock and cook.

6. Remove mushrooms and carrots and add to pile. Pour stock in pan and bring to boil.  Add 3 cans of cannelloni beans.  Arrange sausages in pan and then add rest of ingredients.  Throw in a handful of grape tomatoes.  Boil.

7. After 20 minutes, reduce heat and cover for another 20 minutes.  Then 7 minutes before serving remove lid and boil again.

Done:)
