KALE AND BLACK BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Heat the olive oil over medium heat and add garlic, onions, carrots and heat until the onions just start to glisten.
• 2. Add Kale and squash and stir and heat til Kale starts to wilt a bit and squash starts to soften. Cut up squash to the size of bites you like in your soup.
• 3. If you use fresh tomatoes, boil water and drop them into for a minute and pull them out to skin easily before adding to soup. Cut up tomatoes to the size you like...
• 4. Add chicken (or vegetable) broth, minor's paste, water, tomatoes, herbs, and all other ingredients until you get it the way you like your soup thickness to be. Add the can of black beans last and simmer for an hour. Soup is even better the second day after in the fridge overnight:)

SPICED BLACK BEAN & CHICKEN SOUP WITH KALE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the garlic, coriander stalks and lime zest, then fry for 2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the cumin and chilli flakes, fry for 1 min more, then tip in the tomatoes, beans and stock. Bring to the boil, then crush the beans against the bottom of the pan a few times using a potato masher. This will thicken the soup a little.
• Stir the kale into the soup, simmer for 5 mins or until tender, then tear in the chicken and let it heat through. Season to taste with salt, pepper and juice from half the lime, then serve in shallow bowls, scattered with the feta and a few coriander leaves. Serve the remaining lime in wedges for the table, with the toasted tortillas on the side. The longer you leave the chicken in the pan, the thicker the soup will become, so add a splash more stock if you can't serve the soup straight away.
