Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, chopped

1 chorizo sausage, scored and finely chopped

1 clove garlic, chopped

1 x (420g) tin diced tomatoes

1 litre (4 cups) chicken stock

1 cup risoni

3 cup silverbeet, washed and shredded

1 large carrot, chopped roughly

1 cup frozen peas

Method

1.Heat oil in a large heavy based saucepan. Add onion and cook over low heat for 2-4 minutes, or until soft. Add chorizo and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until browned. Drain off excess oil.

2.Add garlic and cook for a further 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and stock, bring to the boil.

3.Reduce heat, add risoni. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until nearly tender.

4.Stir through silverbeet, carrot and peas; cook for a further 2 minutes. Season. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with crusty bread and parmesan, if desired.

Risoni is a rice shaped pasta. But any small shape pasta like shells or bows is fine for this recipe.
