Servings4
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 medium carrots, diced
3-4 celery stalks, diced
2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cans (14 oz / 400 g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 lb (225 g) potatoes, peeled and cubed
5 cups (1.25 liter) vegetable stock
1 cup (250 ml) coconut cream
1/2 cup (30 g) sundried tomatoes
2 cups (75 g) black kale (cavolo nero)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the onion is translucent.

2

Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, and red chili flakes and cook for another minute.

3

Stir in the tomato paste, and then add the chickpeas, potatoes, and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

4

If you want your soup to be creamier, remove a portion of the soup and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.

5

Stir in the coconut cream, sundried tomatoes and black kale. Simmer for another 3-5 minutes or until the kale is wilted.

6

Adjust the seasoning to taste and serve hot with a chunk of your favorite crusty bread.
