Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut capsicum into large chunks. Thickly slice zucchini into half-moons. Cut tomato into thick wedges. • Place prepped veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.
• Meanwhile, drain and rinse cannellini beans. • Finely chop garlic. •Thinly slice leek. • Cut or tear sliced sourdough into bite-sized chunks.
• Place garlic and sourdough on a second lined oven tray. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat. • Bake until golden, 5-7 minutes. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• When the veggies have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook cannellini beans, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 3-4 minutes. • Add Nan's special seasoning, garlic & herb seasoning, passata,vegetable stock pot, the water, the brown sugar and the plant-based butter. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.
• Add roasted veggies to the saucepan, stir to combine and season with pepper to taste.
• Divide white bean and roast veggie stew between bowls. • Drizzle with plant-based basil pesto. • Sprinkle with diced bacon. Top with garlicky sourdough croutons to serve. Enjoy!
