Step-by-step
- Put the tomatoes in a large saucepan and add 1.5 cans of boiling water. Bring to the boil and add the cabbage, then simmer for 5 minutes. Add the kale and beans and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, brush the ciabatta with 1 tbsp of the oil and toast on a hot griddle pan (or under a hot grill) for 1–2 minutes each side until browned. Rub each side of the ciabatta with the garlic clove.
- Bring a pan of water to the boil and crack the eggs into it. Poach for 2 minutes until the whites are set. Meanwhile, spoon the soup into four serving bowls.
- Remove each egg from the pan with a slotted spoon and place on top of the ciabatta. Sit the egg-topped toast into the soup bowls, drizzle over the remaining oil and serve.
