Cassoulet

Anything goes bean stew/soup dish.


The basic Ingredients:
  • Beans: White haricot are my favourite. Almost any beans are good
  • Meat: Something tasty, any of: sausage, bacon, mutton, turkey, smoked...
  • Veggies: Onion, potatoes
  • Herbs: Garlic, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, parsley, Juniper berries, S&P
The process:
  • Add to pot and cook.
  • Keep the beans to the meat ratio high on the beans side. 
  • Liquids (Stock): 3 to 1 ratio to the beans, more means a soup.  Also consider some flour as this will make for a rich liquid.
  • Add to pressure cooker and cook for 30 minutes with the heaviest weight.
