Method
- Set a deep frying pan over a medium heat and heat the oil. Add the onion and cook for 8-10 minutes until soft and translucent. Squeeze the meat out of the sausage skins and shape into about 12 bite-size balls. Turn up the heat, add the meatballs to the pan with the onion and cook until beginning to brown and crisp.
- Add the beans, stir well, then add the stock and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for another 10 minutes, then add the spinach and season well.
- Remove the soup from the heat, divide between bowls, then top with a good dollop of pesto, a squeeze of lemon juice and an extra drizzle of the olive oil. Serve with plenty of crusty bread.
