Scrub off the young potatoes and cook with the skin through. In the meantime, wash and clean the beans and cook them in salted water for 5 - 10 minutes until al dente. Rinse with cold water and set aside.
Cut the pears into cubes and fry them in a pan with olive oil. Add the sugar and let the pears caramelize briefly. As soon as the pears are soft, add the ham in strips.
Then add the beans to the pan and pour the broth over everything and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Simmer gently for about 5 minutes and then serve with the potatoes.
