Ingredients

    180g bag of kale
    100g frozen spinach
    100g grated carrot
    1 can borlotti beans
    1 can haricot beans
    60g quinoa
    25g chorizo, diced
    1 cooking onion
    1 chicken breast (c. 150g), diced
    2 sachets miso soup paste
    1 chilli, chopped
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 tbsp turmeric
    1 tbsp paprika
    6 cloves garlic

Tips

1. This was the result of a fridge and pantry forage, and I will probably add frozen edamame beans when re-heating leftovers - tailor with your choice of pulse!
2. Works well if you sub tofu for chicken, too.


Directions

1. Sweat onions and garlic in olive oil. Add chorizo, chilli and spices and fry off.
2. Add chicken and quinoa then cover with stock/water. Add kale, carrots, miso paste and cook for 10 mins.
3. Add drained beans, spinach and cook for a further 10 mins.
4. Remove as much of the kale as possible and half the beans. Blend with a little of the liquid, and add back to the soup - this should thicken it and bring it together, while leaving satisfying pieces of chorizo, beans and chicken
5. Adjust thickness of soup and then taste for seasonings (celery or other flavoured salt is a fab way to add depth if salt is needed). Serve with lemon juice if preferred.
