METHOD

1

Soften

Cook the onion in oil for five minutes. Add garlic and paprika and stir for one minute.

2

Build

Pour in tomatoes and stock. Simmer for ten minutes to deepen.

3

Add the pasta

Tip in the pasta and beans and cook for ten minutes until pasta is al dente.

4

Wilt the kale

Stir in shredded kale for the last two minutes โ€” it should still hold its colour.

VEG.ARMY TIP

Top each bowl with a teaspoon of pesto for a sharp herbal contrast.
