Smoky cabbage and cannellini soup

Method

  1. Cut the tough core out of the cabbage half and shred the leaves finely. Chop the onion and carrot into small pieces and crush the garlic. Drain and rinse the cannellini beans.
  2. Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Cook the onion and carrot with a pinch of salt for 8 minutes until soft.
  3. Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika and thyme for 1 minute.
  4. Add the cabbage and stir for 2 minutes, until it begins to wilt.
  5. Add the chopped tomatoes and beans, with the stock cube crumbled into 600 ml of boiling water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 20 minutes, until the cabbage is tender.
  6. Mash a few beans against the side of the pan to thicken the broth a little. Season well with salt and pepper and ladle into deep bowls.

Tip Shred the cabbage fine so it softens in the time given. A tin of chickpeas works if you have no cannellini beans.
