Ingredients for 8 servings

1 beautiful slice of fresh farmhouse ham (rouelle) of 1.8 to 2 kgs seasoned
600 g of shelled beans (Paimpol coco beans, Tarbais, Mogettes de Vendée or others)
3 beautiful carrots (Créances if you can find them) peeled and cut into small mirepoix (small cubes)
10 small onions
2 shallots peeled and cut in half
80 g of belly pork (or small lardons)
1 tablespoon of good tomato paste
2 cloves of garlic, degerminated and crushed
thyme and bay leaf
a little fat lard
salt and ground pepper

Step-by-step directions

1- Preheat your oven to 200°(th6-7)

2- In a large casserole, melt a few cubes of lard, then brown your seasoned piece of pork on each side, add your shallots and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. After 15 minutes, add a glass of water, broth or white wine around it.

3- Meanwhile, in another casserole, melt the belly pork cut into thick strips then add the diced carrots, a little thyme flowers, 1 bay leaf, the small onions and shelled beans, cover and sweat gently for 10 minutes.
Then add the tablespoon of concentrated tomato and pour 1 liter of water*, bring to a boil, salt and pepper and let simmer gently and uncovered for 20 minutes.

4- Remove your casserole from the oven, place the meat on a small plate then pour into the casserole that was used for its cooking all your cooked vegetables with their cooking. All you have to do is place the meat on top, cover and put back in the oven for an additional 20 minutes (test the beans).
Thus the flavors of the roasted meat and beans will blend together. You will then just have to remove your meat, slice it into large slices and arrange them on your beans stewed and arranged in a large deep dish or on individual plates, drizzling with a little of the juice from the cooking...
