Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Two 15-ounce cans butter beans or large white Italian beans, drained
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 leeks, white parts only, sliced and washed thoroughly
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 quarts (8 cups) vegetable or chicken stock
1 cup ditalini pasta
1 cup frozen pearl onions, defrosted and sliced in half
1/2 cup canned chopped tomatoes
8 ounces haricot vert or green beans, cut into thirds
4 cups baby spinach
1 cup fresh or frozen peas (defrosted if frozen)
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 cup pesto
1 cup thinly sliced radishes
1 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves picked
1 cup sliced scallions
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • For the soup: In a small food processor, puree 1/4 cup of the butter beans until smooth. Set aside.
  • Place a heavy saucepan or stockpot over medium-low heat and add the olive oil. Add the leeks and garlic and sweat until translucent and softened, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the stock, pasta, pearl onions, tomatoes and remaining butter beans. Bring to a simmer and simmer until the pasta is cooked, about 5 minutes. Check the seasoning. Add the haricot vert and cook for another 3 minutes. Stir in the bean puree, spinach, peas and parsley.
  • For serving: Transfer to serving bowls and garnish with a small spoonful of pesto, some radishes, cilantro and scallions, a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of Parmesan.

SPRING MINESTRONE WITH KALE AND PASTA



Spring Minestrone With Kale and Pasta image

This one-pot springtime minestrone combines asparagus, peas and kale with a healthy dose of fresh ginger. The ginger is optional, but it energizes the broth. This recipe is fairly flexible overall: You can swap green vegetables according to taste, use vegetable or chicken stock and toss in any type of short pasta. The pesto and Parmesan swirled in at the end provide brightness and richness, but you could also finish the soup with tapenade, sour cream, ricotta or even a splash of your favorite hot sauce.

1 cup fresh or frozen peas
5 ounces baby kale, baby spinach or torn spinach (about 4 cups)
Storebought pesto and grated Parmesan, for serving

  • Coarsely grind coriander seeds, fennel seeds, and peppercorns in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Cook oil, garlic, and ground spices in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, until garlic is softened but not crisp, about 2 minutes. Add scallions, chile (if using), and lemon zest and cook, stirring occasionally, until scallions are softened and almost completely charred, 5–7 minutes.
  • Pour 6 cups cold water into saucepan, increase heat to medium-high, and bring to a simmer. Add leeks, fennel bulb and stalks, beans, and sugar snap peas (pan will look crowded but vegetables will shrink as they cook). Reduce heat to medium. Add a large pinch of salt and simmer, stirring occasionally, until leeks, fennel, and sugar snap peas are fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Add spinach, English peas, and miso and cook, stirring, just until spinach is wilted, about 10 seconds; season with salt.
