Sobronade

Sobronade is a traditional soup originating from Périgord. Although it's regarded as a soup, the dish is a combination of potatoes and white beans flavored with ham, and some even think of it as a poor man's cassoulet. It's made by boiling white beans, ham, and potatoes, followed by carrots, clove-spiked onions, and sliced turnips which have ideally been fried in goose fat.

The combination is boiled again, followed by thick slices of potatoes, and the soup is then slowly simmered until all ingredients are very tender. When done, sobronade is served hot as it is or over slices of stale bread.
