Step-by-Step Instructions for Cassoulet Toast
  1. In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, cooking for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and caramelize for 25 minutes.
  2. Stir in two cans of rinsed beans, chopped tomatoes, thyme, and additional olive oil. Add water, mashing some beans gently, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. In a separate skillet, place duck confit skin side down with 1 tablespoon of water. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, crisping the skin for about 10 minutes.
  4. Preheat the broiler. Arrange sourdough slices on a baking sheet and toast for 3-5 minutes until golden. Rub with the remaining garlic.
  5. Assemble by placing 1/2 cup of the bean mixture on each toast, topping with duck confit, then drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with parsley.
