Pasta with Beans

Ingredients

Directions

• With the help of a potato peeler, clean the celery by eliminating the external coriaceous leaves.
• Chop all the vegetables needed.
• Put extra virgin olive oil in a pan and heat it. Then add chopped vegetables.
• When they start sizzling, add FRAMORE beans (which are pre-made) and leave them season with all the ingredients. Add a sage leaf to enhance the flavor.
• Add to your ingredients a couple of spoonfuls of tomato sauce.
• Pour a lot of vegetable broth (or chicken broth if you have any) in order to cover all your ingredients.
• Cover your pan and leave them cook for 20 minutes.
• Add salt to the broth if needed.
• After 20 minutes, take a small quantity of beans and blend them with a mixer.
• Then put them again in your pan and add pasta, which will be cooked in your broth, together with all the ingredients. Remember to cook it just a couple of minutes less than cooking time, in order to get an “al dente” texture.
• Once ready, do not immediately serve your dish: turn off the heat and leave the pan with the lid to rest a couple of minutes.
• Then, your pasta with beans is ready to be served: add just a little extra virgin olive oil.
