Cooking Steps
1
- Trim the root and the dark green leafy part from the leek. Halve lengthways, then thinly slice half (double for 4p).

- Roughly chop the parsley stalks and all.
- Drain and rinse the cannellini beans in a sieve.
2
- Place a large pot for the chilli over a medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the chopped leek and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook the leek until softened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.
- Add the pork mince and fry until browned, 4-5 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. The meat is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
