Steam zucchini in a steamer basket on the stove for 5 minutes, then add the kale leaves and continue steaming for another 2 minutes. Transfer kale and zucchini to a high-speed blender. Add basil, parmesan,1 tbsp olive oil and water/stock. Season with salt and pepper, then pulse until smooth.
Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, leek and garlic and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until soft and translucent. Next, add the zucchini puree, season to taste and bring to a gentle simmer for 2-3 minutes.
