Hachis

Hachis, green beans, and the rest of last night’s Médoc.

This was very delicious.

Hachis Parmentier is basically a french cottage pie. This version replaced the potato purée topping with a white bean purée (Rancho Gordo cassoulet beans). Antoine-Augustin Parmentier promoted the eating of potatoes. Since I didn’t use potatoes here, I dropped “Parmentier” from the name in my title and meal description above. (All of us who love potatoes and the fantastic things the french do to them owe M. Parmentier our gratitude, however.)
