Preparation

  1. Prepare the Cassoulet

    • In a pot of boiling water, cook the potatoes until very soft. Drain and mash with a potato masher; set aside.
    • In another pot of salted boiling water, cook the carrots for about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove carrots from the water and drain. Add the turnips and cook for 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the turnips and drain. Add the leeks, cook for only a couple of minutes, remove and drain. In a small bowl, combine the soft butter, mustard, herbs, salt and pepper. Mix well.
    • In a large pot, bring 1 1/4 cups of water to a boil. Add the carrots, turnips, green beans, and garlic. Boil for a couple of minutes, and add the mashed potatoes and remaining vegetables. Stir and simmer on low for 2-3 minutes, then remove from the heat and add the butter mixture. Stir well until the mix is completely incorporated.
  2. Finish the Dish

    • When ready to serve, poach the eggs.
    • Serve the “ragout” in individual bowls, place a poached egg on top, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan. Serve immediately.
