    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the beef, pork, and lamb. Add the sliced onions, crushed garlic, thyme, parsley, and white wine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

    2

    The next day, preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C). Arrange one-third of the potato slices on the bottom of a large Dutch oven or casserole dish. Layer the carrots over the potatoes, then add the marinated meats, including the marinade.

    3

    Continue layering with the remaining potatoes until all ingredients are used. Place the bay leaves on top and season with salt and pepper.

    4

    Pour in enough wine and marinade to just cover the ingredients. Cover the Dutch oven with its lid, or use parchment paper and aluminum foil to create a tight seal.

    5

    Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 3 hours, or until the meat is very tender and the flavors have melded together.

    6

    Before serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with crusty bread or a side salad.
