Wskazówki

chopping

Get all the prep done before you start cooking: mince the garlic and finely chop the onion. Remove the casings from your sausage. Drain and rinse the beans.

browning

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium high. Add sausage, break up the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and onion, cook until fragrant, for 3 minutes. Stir in spices, and cook for 1 minute more.

simmering

Pour in broth, add puréed tomatoes and tomato paste. Bring to a boil, then add cannellini beans. Stir, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring every now and then.

seasoning

When ready, pour in cream and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and stir in Parmesan. Finish off with some extra black pepper and parsley. Adjust salt to taste.

serving

Serve with crusty bread. Dollop each bowl with red pesto and some red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
