We brought a traditional cassoulet dish in Carcassonne last summer. I've got duck confit all ready, but it seems to have taken an age to find some haricot beans, so I'm making my first attempt tomorrow.

We used to bring tins of duck confit and cassoulet back from France. About a year ago finished the last can from several years before!

I take it you don't usually eat in traditional British caffs then? About the best you could expect would be the option of not-very-good cumberland sausage

They're not bad, but they're not cheap either. And I tried making my own duck confit for the first time last year - and did so again this last autumn, so I'll be able to use that too, which will make it feel a bit more of an achievement.

and have eaten in many of the cafes featured. My real hate is when they deep fry the sausages and they become greasy and mulchy
