HiyaCould i get the minestrone soup recipe from you please ?
I don't really use a recipe as such as it varies depending on what veg I have in the fridge. Ideally though I'd fry some onions, garlic, chopped bacon (fat removed) & celery in a big pan. Then roughing chop & add couple of carrots, leeks & courgettes plus a few potatoes and a sweetheart cabbage to the pan. Followed by chicken stock, tinned tomatoes and borlotti beans. I then season with oregano and bring to boil. Once boiling & turn it down and leave it to simmer for 30 minutes or so. I normally cook this in advance so end up heating it up later - no idea how long I cook it for in total but its just to make sure the veg is all cooked Hope this helps x
