This chunky Italian-style soup is like a minestrone, with hearty chunks of potato, smoked bacon and orecchiette pasta.
- Heat butter and olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Add leek and bacon. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add potatoes, canned tomato, stock and bay leaves. Simmer, partially covered, for 15 minutes or until potatoes are soft.
- Add pasta and 1 cup of water. Simmer for 25 minutes or until pasta is cooked. Season. Dollop with pesto. Sprinkle with baby basil leaves.
