A Really Simple Butter Bean Dip

If you’ve been staring at a tin of butter beans in your cupboard for a while, then may I suggest you do something like this with it?

Once made – spread on toast topped with roasted tomatoes, add in to pittas with halloumi or if you’re feeling really wild – you can dip your crisps in to it. We are living in ”unprecedented times” after all…

Ingredients

• 1 tin butter beans
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• handful fresh parsley
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• juice of half a lemon
• 2 tbsp a good olive oil
• salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Heat some 1 tbsp of oil in a pan and add the butter beans with the garlic, cumin, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Keep stirring on a medium heat until well heated through - and add a splash of water to stop it sticking. Put the lid on and let it all heat through for 5-10 minutes. Eh, let's go with 7 minutes just for the lols.
2. Grab a hand blender and splash in the olive oil. Smash it all up until it forms a paste, adding in a little water if you want it thinner. Give it a taste and be sure to add more seasoning if you like it saltier.
3. Serve up!
