Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 large onion finely diced
  • 1 large carrot diced
  • 1 large leek sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves crushed or grated
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 750 ml vegetable broth
  • 2 tins cannellini beans drained
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh thyme for garnish
  • Freshly toasted bread to serve optional

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened, for about 3-4 minutes. Add the diced carrot and sliced leeks, and stir regularly until all ingredients have softened and lightly caramelized. You can sprinkle a little salt into the saucepan to speed things up.
  • Add the minced or grated garlic and once fragrant, stir in the dried thyme. Toss everything to coat the veggies in the herb and after heating through for a minute, pour in the vegetable stock.
  • Bring everything to a simmer, then add a lid to the saucepan and reduce the heat. Let everything simmer for 5-8 minutes for the flavors to meld together.
  • Add in the drained cannellini beans, and once heated through, use a stick blender to blend roughly ¼ of the soup to give it a creamy texture. Stir well, and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, garnish the soup with fresh thyme and enjoy alongside a slice of freshly toasted bread.
