• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
• 1 pound baby red potatoes, thinly sliced
• 4 ribs celery from the heart, chopped
• 5 carrots, shredded (2 cups)
• 2 onions, chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth (32 ounces)
• 1 can tomato sauce (15 ounces)
• 1 can chickpeas, rinsed (15 1/2 ounces)
• 1 can kidney beans, rinsed (15 1/2 ounces)
• 1/2 pound green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1/2 cup pickle relish
• Flat leaf parsley, chopped (a couple of generous handfuls)
• Dill sprigs, for garnish
• Crusty whole grain bread, for serving

","preparation":"

In a soup pot, heat the EVOO, three turns of the pan, over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, celery, carrots, onions and bay leaf and cook until softened, 7-8 minutes. Add the broth, tomato sauce, chickpeas and kidney beans, then cover and bring to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, 5 minutes. Season liberally with salt and pepper (the stoup is thick – you can add a little water if you prefer it a little soupier).\n\nStir in the relish and parsley and turn off the heat. Discard the bay leaf. Top the stoup with the dill sprigs and serve with the bread.
