Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter sub with vegan butter if necessary
  • 1 large white onion finely sliced
  • 2 large garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 1 red chilli finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 large carrot peeled and cut into cubes
  • 1 medium-sized potato peeled and cut into cubes
  • salt
  • 400 grams cannellini beans 1 can, drained and rinsed
  • 1 vegetable stock cube I love using Kallo organic vegetable stock cube
  • 1 teaspoon red chilli powder optional
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder optional
  • 200 ml boiling water
  • 200 ml full-fat canned coconut milk
  • 100 g chopped kale leaves
  • 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast optional

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a medium-sized pot. Add butter and let it melt.
  • Add onions and fry for 3 to 4 minutes till they are translucent.
  • Add garlic, mix well and cook for a minute.
  • Add chopped red chillies and mix well.
  • Add tomato paste. Stir well and cook for about a minute.
  • Add fresh thyme leaves and give it a good mix.
  • Add the carrots, potatoes and cannellini beans.
  • Add salt, chilli powder and coriander powder. Mix well.
  • Add vegetable stock and coconut milk.
  • Add the chopped kale. Stir well and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Use a potato masher to roughly mash the potatoes, carrots and cannellini beans. The goal here is to mash it roughly and still retain a bite.
    Do not puree the mixture unless you do not prefer a chunky soup.
  • Serve in a bowl garnished with nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavour (this is optional) and croutons.
