Preparation
|
Heat the oil in a large skillet and add the ham and Italian sausage.
Cover and cook over high heat for 7 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally.
Add the bratwurst, mushrooms, onion, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf. Mix well and cook for another 5 to 6 minutes.
Add the beans, tomato, water, and pepper, bring back to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and boil gently for 5 minutes.
At serving time, discard the bay leaf, cut the ham into slices and the sausage pieces in half, and arrange the meat on a platter with the beans.
Sprinkle the parsley on top. Serve with the Tabasco and mustard.
