Cooking Steps
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Remove the root and dark green leafy part from the leek. Thinly slice.
- Trim the courgette, quarter lengthways and chop widthways into 1cm chunks.
- Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
- Drain and rinse the cannellini beans in a sieve.
- Place a large pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the leek and chorizo.
- Cook until the leek is softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Cook chorizo thoroughly.
NOTE: Adding chicken? Add to the pot along with the chorizo and cook until browned, 5-6 mins.
- Add the cannellini beans, half a sachet of dried Italian herbs (per 2P) and chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice) to the pot.
- Cook until fragrant, stirring frequently, 1 min.
- Pour in the passata, stock and 400ml water (per 2P).
- Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the veg is tender, 10-12 mins.
TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- When 5 mins of cooking time remain, remove the lid and add the courgette.
- Cook until softened, 5 mins.
- Taste and season with salt, pepper and sugar, if desired.
- Pop the baguettes into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.
- Dish up spoonfuls of hearty cannellini bean and chorizo stew.
- Garnish with cheese and chopped parsley.
- Serve the warm baguette alongside.
