Directions

Heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a large saucepan over medium. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the leeks and cook until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the carrots and celery and cook until soft, 5 to 6 minutes more. Season with salt and chili flakes. Stir in the cabbage and the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes. Add the kale and until wilted, 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until slightly soft, about 2 minutes. Add the bread and stir to combine, then the vegetable stock and the bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the beans. Cover and 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread has broken down and the soup has thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in the zest of half a lemon and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Juice the entire lemon into the soup, the season with the salt and chili flakes. Spoon ribollita between four bowls and drizzle with olive oil. Grate fresh parmesan over the top and serve.
