SWEET POTATO SOUP WITH SAGE, WHITE BEANS AND PASTA

Steps:

• In a large pot heat the oil and fry all the vegetables for 3 - 5 minutes, stiring often to stop from burning. Add the sage and cook for a further minute.
• Add the stock (hot stock will make the soup cook faster) and bring to the boil. Let the veggies cook (about 10 minutes) and use a potato masher to roughly mash the veggies so you have plenty of chunky bits, but they aren't too big. Reduce to a slow boil.
• Add the pasta and cook for 10 minutes.
• Add the canned beans and cook for a further 5 minutes. Stir through the parsley, salt and pepper.
• Let sit for a few minutes before serving with bread.
