Description
A warm, simple stew featuring creamy white beans, sweet cabbage, and fragrant herbs, perfect for a cozy dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 cans (15 oz each) white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 small head of cabbage, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large pot over medium heat. Chop the onion, dice the carrots and celery, mince the garlic, and chop the cabbage into bite-size pieces. Rinse and drain the canned beans. Measure the herbs and broth so everything is ready.
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the hot pot. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté until the vegetables soften and the onion turns translucent, about 5–7 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil. Add the drained white beans and chopped cabbage, then reduce to a simmer.
- Let the stew simmer for 20–25 minutes until the cabbage is tender. Taste and season with salt and pepper. If desired, mash some beans for a smoother texture before serving.
Notes
Serve with crusty bread or warm buttered toast. For a heartier meal, top with roasted sausages or serve alongside boiled potatoes.
