| 1. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/400°F Lightly grease an ovenproof gratin dish with a little olive oil. | 2. Topping: Mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese and garlic together. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside. | 3. Cassoulet: Fry the bacon pieces in a large frying pan until crisp. Take the bacon pieces out and add the chopped onions - fry them gently in the bacon fat until the onion is soft but not coloured. Add the fresh thyme leaves and mix through. | 4. Add the bacon to the onion and thyme mixture and then gently mix the butter beans through the mixture. | 5. In a large bowl, add the crème fraiche, tomato paste, wine and sugar - mix thoroughly. Season with pepper and a little salt, as the bacon is already quite salty. | 6. Add the bacon and butter bean mixture to the crème fraiche and wine sauce - mix gently. | 7. Transfer all the butter bean mixture to the greased gratin dish. Sprinkle the topping over evenly and place the sliced tomatoes on top in an attractive pattern. | 8. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the cassoulet is bubbling and the topping is a golden brown. | 9. Serve immediately with a large bowl of salad and crusty bread, or, as an accompaniment for sausages, roast meat and poultry, casseroles, stews or grilled meat. | 10. Serves 3 people as a main meal and 6 people as an accompaniment. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
