- Soak the BEANS 8 hours - OR - put them in a pot with
three cups of water, bring to a boil, remove from the heat and let
soak for at least an hour.
- Cut SAUSAGES into largish chunks.
- Cut TURKEY into pieces about the same size as the sausage
chunks.
- Dice ONION and CARROT small, crush and chop GARLIC
and mix..
- Cut enough bread into cubes to make one cup. Bake in oven at about
325°F just long enough to be firm but not browned. Set aside.
- Preheat Oven to 350°F.
- Place the Sausage peices In a sauté pan sufficient to
hold the entire recipe. Add 1/8 inch water and place on high heat.
When the water has boiled out it should have rendered enough fat to
fry the sausage pieces. Fry stiring until lightly browned all over.
Remove sausage and set aside leaving the fat in the pan.
- Add the Onion mix to the pan and fry stirring until onions are
translucent but not starting to color. If your sausage didn't produce
enough fat to fry add a little olive oil.
- Pour in DICED TOMATOES including their juice and deglaze the
pan. Pour in the BEANS and enough STOCK to just come to
the top of the beans.. Season to taste with SALT and
PEPPER and stir to mix thoroughly.
- Place ALL * HERBS in the bottom of a coverable ovenproof
caserole. Pour the Bean Mix over and arrange
the Sausage Chunks on top. Adjust Stock level to just
come up to the top of the beans.
- Cover tightly and bake in the oven for 1-1/2 hours at 350°F.
- While the dish is baking prepare the topping. Run the bread cubes in
a small food processor or other device until reduced to crumbs. Crush
and chop one clove of GARLIC, chop PARSLEY, and and add
them to the crumbs. Process a moment to mix, then add 1/2 T
OLIVE OIL and process a few moments to blend.
- Uncover the caserole and place the turkey chunks around among the
sausage chunks pressing them down a little into the beans. Check the
stock level and add more if required to bring it up nearly to the top
of the beans.
- Sprinkle the Crumb Mix evenly over the top of the caserole,
check that nothing sticks up too high and put it back in the oven,
uncovered, to bake at 350°F for 1/2 hour when the crust should be
lightly browned and the dish bubbly.
