Ingredients:

Serving

3 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only)
4 medium carrots , halved lengthwise and cut into 1-inch-wide pieces
3 celery ribs, cut into 1-inch-wide pieces
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
4 fresh thyme sprigs
2 parsley sprigs
1 turkish bay leaf (or 1/2 california )
1/8 tsp ground cloves
3 (19 oz) cans cannellini or 3 (19 oz) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 quart water
4 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs from a baguette
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tbsp chopped garlic
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Directions:

Make cassoulet:.
Halve leeks lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces, then wash well and pat dry.
Cook leeks, carrots, celery, and garlic in oil with herb sprigs, bay leaf, cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a large heavy pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 15 minutes. Stir in beans, then water, and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender but not falling apart, about 30 minutes.
Make garlic crumbs while cassoulet simmers:.
Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
Toss bread crumbs with oil, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a bowl until well coated. Spread in a baking pan and toast in oven, stirring once halfway through, until crisp and golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
Cool crumbs in pan, then return to bowl and stir in parsley.
Finish cassoulet:.
Discard herb sprigs and bay leaf. Mash some of beans in pot with a potato masher or back of a spoon to thicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Just before serving, sprinkle with garlic crumbs.
