The first time I ever cooked a goose, the large bowl of fat that resulted filled me with horror. How to get rid of it? To my shame I let it go cold, wrapped it in newspaper and threw it away. Now I’d rather have the fat than the goose. Here it is an integral part of this French farmhouse kitchen dish.

Ingredients

  • lb (700 g) potatoes, cut in large dice
  • Goose fat
  • 2 large <

Method

Warm the fat and brown the onions and the ham in this. Add the potatoes, season and cook with a lid on the pan, frequently stirring until the potatoes are soft.

Before serving, add the garlic and the parsley. Eat with a large slice of crusty bread with which you can clean the plate.
