10 cups (or more) water
1 cup dried cannellini (white kidney beans)
1 large onion, chopped

1 pound small red-skinned potatoes, quartered
2 leeks (white and pale green parts only), thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Combine 4 cups water, beans, onion and 2 garlic cloves in heavy large pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat. Cover; simmer until beans are just tender, stirring occasionally, about 55 minutes.
