Duo of slow-cooked pork
Two pork ingredients, smoked sausage and a shoulder joint here, are left to cook slowly on a bed of vegetables and herbs, moistened with a vegetable or poultry stock.
This is one of those crafty dishes that can be reheated over and over, getting better each time.

Step by step recipe
Stage 1
10 min.
Prepare 500 g white haricot beans.If you are using fresh beans, boil them for 10 minutes in salted water.
For dried beans, leave them to soak overnight in cold water.
Stage 2
30 min.
Prepare 300 g carrot and cut into chunks of about 1/2 an inch 91 cm).Do the same for 300 g turnip and 300 g potimarron (Japanese chestnut pumpkin).
Put all these vegetables into a large casserole.
Stage 3
1 min.
Stage 4
1 min.
Salt and pepper the 500 g pork meat all over (a nice bit of shoulder here).Stage 5
5 min.
Pour 2 tablespoons oil into a frying pan on high heat. When really hot, add the meat and suasage (smoked if possible).Brown rapidly on all sides.
Stage 6
1 min.
Sit the meat on top of the vegetables.Stage 7
1 min.
Prick the sausage.Stage 8
4 hours
Add 2 cloves garlic, 2 bayleaves, 5 leaves sage and pour 1 litre 500 ml Vegetable stock over. The level of the stock should cover all the vegetables.Put on the lid and cook in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for at least 4 hours.
Stage 9
After this time the meat should be "confite" (can be shredded with a fork) and the vegetables deliciously flavoured with a melting texture.Serve directly on the table so that everyone can help themselves.
Remarks
The 4 hours cooking time is only a guide. Feel free to make it longer if you like, but then reduce the temperature to 270°F (130°C).
If you don't have vegetable stock, a chicken stock cube will work just fine.
