I’m in my miso era and I have no regrets. Here’s another 30 min weeknight meal I hope you love, packed with vitamins, protein, rich in iron - a perfect balanced vegan meal. 
INGREDIENTS:
2 large handfuls cavolo nero or kale, stems removed 
2 large leeks, chopped finely into half moons 
3 tins butterbeans 
6 cloves garlic
2 tbsp olive oil
Big pinch of salt for caramelising the leeks 
Around 1/2 cup of soaked cashew nuts 
2 tbsp nooch 
2 tbsp white miso paste
A little water to loosen the green sauce blending 
1tsp coriander 
1tsp cumin 
Fresh cracked black pepper 
To serve: tahini yogurt (1tbsp tahini mixed with 2 tbsp yoghurt and juice of half a lemon, water to loosen if needed) fresh coriander, black pepper, drizzle of olive oil, chilli flakes, bread/toast 
METHOD:
💚 De-stem the cavolo nero, blanch (pop them in boiling water for 2 mins, then cold ice water for 1 min) then add to a blender with the soaked cashews, nooch, 1tbsp olive oil, miso, 2 of the minced garlic cloves and the juice of one lemon. Blend until smooth. 
💚 caramelise the leeks in a medium heat with a big pinch of salt for 10 mins until they’re becoming brown and tasting sweet. Add the rest of the minced garlic and the spices (cumin, coriander) sauté for 3/4 mins, then add the butterbeans with their juices. 
💚 stir through the green mixture and bubble for 2 mins, then take off the heat, sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and serve with the tahini yogurt and some bread/toast.
