Method
- Chop the onion finely and slice the garlic. Drain and rinse the cannellini beans.
- Warm most of the olive oil in a large, deep pan over a medium heat, keeping back about a teaspoon for the toast. Cook the onion with a pinch of salt for about 8 minutes until soft, then add the garlic and dried oregano for 1 minute.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, beans and 100 ml of water. Simmer for 18 minutes, stirring now and then, until the sauce has thickened.
- Stir in the spinach a handful at a time until it wilts, about 3 minutes. Taste and season.
- Slice the sourdough, toast it until golden and drizzle with the remaining oil.
- Ladle the stew into bowls and serve with the toast.
Tip A drizzle of your best olive oil over each bowl makes more difference than any extra seasoning.
