White Beans And Cavolo Nero Recipes

ZUPPA DI CAVOLO NERO, CANNELLINI, E SALSICCE: KALE, WHITE BEAN, AND SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Sauté the crumbled sausage in the oil until browned, and reserve. Sauté the onions and garlic until translucent.
• Add to the chicken stock in a big pot. Add the wine and cook until the alcohol has evaporated, then add the thyme and kale. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the cooked sausage and the beans and simmer another 15 minutes.

MUSSELS WITH CHORIZO, BEANS & CAVOLO NERO

Steps:

• Gently cook the shallots, parsley stalks, garlic and chorizo in the oil in a large pan with a lid or casserole dish until the shallots are softened - about 5 mins. Add the cavolo nero and cook for a couple more mins, then add the wine and cook for another 1 min.
• Stir in the beans, then add the mussels, ensuring they're well coated with the sauce, and cover with the lid. Cook for a few mins, shaking the pan to release the mussel juices, until they've all opened (discard any that haven't). Scatter over the parsley leaves and squeeze over the lemon to serve.
