Ingredients

  • 300g Quorn Vegetarian Chicken Pieces
  • 800g beans, white, medium sized
  • 1 level teaspoon salt
  • 2 celery sticks
  • 3 carrots
  • 1 onion
  • 5 cloves of garlic
  • 2-3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 1 vegetable bouillon cube
  • 1 red apple
  • 2 litres water

To Serve (optional):

  • Chili flakes
  • Feta cheese
  • Olives

Method

  1. Chop the celery and carrot into 1-2 cm pieces.
  2. Roughly chop the onion and thinly slice the garlic.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a pot and toss in the vegetables. Sauté for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften. Once the juices have evaporated and the veg is soft, stir in the tomato paste and sauté for another minute.
  4. Add the bay leaves, rosemary, bouillon cube, and the apple (leave it whole, as it’ll help thicken the soup. Don’t worry, you’ll remove it at the end).
  5. Pour in the water, cover the pot, and simmer for 1 hour. Check on it occasionally and top up with boiling water if needed to keep the simmer going.
  6. About 10 minutes before it's done, add the Quorn Vegetarian Chicken Pieces and beans and season with salt and pepper, then cover again.
  7. Once ready, remove the apple and discard.
  8. To Serve with a sprinkle of chilli flakes, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, feta, thyme and a pinch of salt and pepper. Tuck in with a hunk of bread.
