Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium leek
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 oz pancetta
2 cups carrot, diced
3 stalks celery stalk, sliced
8 oz cremini mushroom, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
kosher salt, to taste
4 sprigs fresh thyme sprigs
14.5 oz diced tomato
4 cups great northern beans, cooked or canned
6 cups low sodium vegetable broth
parmesan cheese, freshly grated, for serving
bread, crusty, for serving

Steps:

  • Trim the root end and the tough, dark green top of the leek and remove any thick outer layers. Cut the leek in half lengthwise, then slice into ΒΌ-inch (6-mm) thick half moons.
  • Transfer to a bowl of water and shake around with your fingers to loosen any dirt or grit. Let the leeks sit in the water for a couple minutes to let any grit to sink to the bottom of the bowl. Carefully remove the cleaned leeks from the bowl, leaving the dirty water behind.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until crispy and most of the fat has rendered, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the leeks, carrots, celery, mushrooms, and garlic. Season with salt. Cook for 5-6 minutes, until the vegetables have released their juices and begin to soften.
  • Add the thyme leaves, tomatoes, beans, and vegetable stock. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes until slightly reduced and hot throughout. Season with more salt, to taste.
  • Ladle into bowls and top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with crusty bread.
  • Enjoy!
