Ingredients
- 400g Andouillette sausage, sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (400g) diced tomatoes
- 1 can (400g) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Steps
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Brown andouillette slices; remove from skillet and set aside.
Add onion and carrots to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add diced tomatoes, cannellini beans, chicken broth, and thyme. Bring to a simmer.
Return andouillette to the skillet. Top with breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and the cassoulet is bubbly. Season with salt and pepper.
Tips
Andouillette's strong aroma intensifies during cooking. Open a window and ensure good ventilation. For a richer flavor, use duck fat instead of olive oil.
