Method
- Start by prepping your yellow onion, garlic, vegetable stock so the cooking goes quickly.
- Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the garlic in a little butter until translucent.
- Turn the heat up, add the minestrone, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
- Fold in the celery and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
- Off the heat, brighten it up with a drizzle of olive oil and a final crack of pepper.
- Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
