Minestrone has no single fixed recipe — its name simply means 'big soup', traditionally made from whatever vegetables a household had on hand.
A hearty Italian vegetable soup loaded with beans, pasta and seasonal vegetables in a rich tomato broth — warming, wholesome, and endlessly adaptable.
Soften carrot, celery and onion in olive oil.
Add tomatoes and vegetable stock, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add beans and pasta, and simmer a further 10-12 minutes until the pasta is tender.
Season well and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and grated parmesan.
Minestrone genuinely improves with a day's rest in the fridge, as the flavours continue to develop.
