I love Italian food! and I wanted to make something tasty and mediterranean for Christmas so I made minestrone our entree. It was the perfect start to our feasting and a delicious mix of savoury, tangy and salty. Here is my recipe.
Ingredients (serves a lot e.g. 10-15):
- 2 Red Onions
- 4 Cloves of Garlic, Crushed
- 1-2 Cups of Chopped Kale
- 1 1/2 Large Eggplant
- 1 Large Green Capsicum
- 1 Cup Mushrooms, chopped roughly
- 2-3 Large Zucchini
- 250 grams green beans
- Can of Butter Beans
- Can of Kidney Beans
- 2 Cans Chopped Tomatoes
- 1 1/2 Cup Tomato Paste
- 2 Cups Vegetable Stock
- Fresh Basil, Oregano and Parsley
- 1 Pack of Fresh Tortellini (I got Mushroom and Ricotta)
- 1-2 Handfuls of Parmesan
Instructions
Chop vegetables into small chunks. Brown onion and garlic then add all ingredients, aside from herbs, pasta and parmesan into slow cooker. Top up with water until liquid line is just below the vegetables. Cook on low until soft (I just had it on overnight, but it depends on your slow cooker). Turn on high 10 minutes before serving and add tortellini and herbs. Mix well and serve with parmesan sprinkled on top.
