    List of Ingredients




    Spring Minestrone for Two With a Spanish Twist


    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1/2 small onion, finely chopped
    1 leek, white part sliced
    1 carrot, finely chopped
    2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    2 small potatoes, peeled and diced
    1 chorizo sausage, cut into bite-sized pieces
    150 g shelled broad beans
    1 cup chicken stock
    To garnish
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

    Recipe




    1 Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan, then add the onion, leek and carrot.

    2 Saute over a low heat until soft.

    3 Add the garlic, potatoes and chorizo and cook again for a few minutes.

    4 Add the broad beans and stock and simmer for 20 minutes or until the broad beans are soft.

    5 Season to taste with salt and pepper, then take half of the soup and puree it in a food processor.

    6 Return the puree to the main soup and stir.

    7 You should have a quite thick consistency, but you can add more chicken stock if desired.

    8 Drizzle with extra olive oil and serve topped with parmesan cheese, if you like.
