1
Put stock in a pot and bring to the boil. Add pasta and cook to package instructions until al dente. We do not want to discard the stock, so put a sieve over a large bowl then strain the pasta, making sure you get all of that stock in the bowl. Set aside.
2
Get the pot back on the stove over medium heat. Add oil, then add onions, garlic, carrots, celery, thyme, bay leaves, parsley stalks and fry for a couple of minutes. Add stock back to the pot, bring to the boil, then lower heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes.
3
At this point, add potatoes, tomatoes and tomato paste. Once again, bring stock back to the boil, then once it is boiling, bring heat down and simmer for about 7-8 minutes.
4
Add Swiss chard and zucchini then simmer soup for a couple more minutes.
5
Add pasta and beans and just warm those ingredients through. If you feel it's necessary to add a splash of extra stock, feel free to do so.
6
Pick basil leaves, roll them up like a cigar then shred them. Add to your minestrone then turn heat off.
7
Serve minestrone into soup bowls or pasta bowls, then finish with a light grating of Parmesan cheese. Enjoy.
