Ingredients

2 tablespoon(s) olive oil

2 leeks

1 onion

2 clove(s) of garlic

1 bay leaf

salt

1000 g stock

400 g red beans

1 bunch sorrel

pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the leaks, onion, garlic, bay leaf and a large pinch of salt. Cook for about 10 minutes, just enough to soften them.

Step 3

Add the vegetable stock and kidney beans. Turn up heat. As soon as the soup comes to a boil, lower heat and simmer until all of the ingredients soften. This should take about 20 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf.

Step 4

Carefully puree 2 cups of soup in a blender. Return puree to pot. Add the sorrel leaves and cook for about 3 minutes over medium to high heat. When the leaves soften, season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
