Chunky Minestrone Soup

This simple minestrone soup is the perfect winter warmer. Full of flavour, easy to prepare and ideal for a cosy night in!
Ingredients
1 onion, peeled and chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 large carrots, chopped
2 sticks celery, chopped
1 courgette, chopped
2.5 tbsp tomato puree
1 400g tin chopped tomatoes
1 400g tin cannelini beans, drained

1.5 litres vegetable stock
1 tsp oregano
Handful fresh basil, shredded
Salt and pepper, to taste
Squeeze lemon and fresh, crusty sourdough, to serve (optional)
Method

2) Stir in the tomato puree and oregano, then add the chopped tomatoes and stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for ten minutes.
3) Add in the pasta, beans and courgette and cook until the pasta has cooked through. Season to taste, then stir through the fresh basil.
4) Serve in bowls with fresh sourdough, a squeeze of lemon and more basil leaves.
