Actually the idea is purloined from French country cuisine around the Bordeaux region.

As I said:  Indian cassoulet!  As this website says, cassoulet is the most famous dish from South West France.

And where is Bordeaux?  South West France!

The French from Provence will tell you that cassoulet should be made with haricot beans!!

"Snert" looks good, but that name! To an Enghlish-speaker, it sounds funny!

Also in Holland "snert" is a kind of funny word.
We use the word also when something is lousy or bad, like in snertweer(weather), when the weather is rainy, cold and stormy. Or a lousy footballmatch is a snertwedstrijd
But the taste is delicious!

CH, when in Orccha I'll definately try your hutspot!! I love real oldfashioned Dutch cuisine.
I'll try to learn Mukta in Jodhpur how to cook some Dutch food.
It's a pity that they are vegatarians. The Dutch cuisine really needs saucisses or bacon or beef

Yes yes haricot beans I think it was that and the saaussages were Choritos
