  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, quartered then halved
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (700g) jar passata
  • 1.2L (2 pints 2 fl oz) water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley, or 1 tablespoon dried
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped basil, or 1 tablespoon dried
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped oregano, or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (400g) tin cannellini beans, drained
  • 1 (400g) tin haricot beans, drained
  • 30g (1 oz) grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 (500g) packet macaroni pasta

 

Method

 

  • In a large stockpot over medium heat, cook onion in olive oil until translucent. Stir in garlic and cook until soft.
  • Reduce heat and stir in passata, water, parsley, basil, oregano, salt, cannellini beans, haricot beans and Parmesan. Simmer 1 hour.
