A lovely creamy, tasty healthy dip. Use simply as a dip or goes really well on bruschetta or in hot pitta bread with grated carrot. Delicious & healthy.
Ingredients:
410 g butter beans, drained
1 garlic clove
10 ml tahini
30 ml greek yogurt
30 ml fresh lemon juice
30 ml olive oil
5 ml cumin powder
seasoning
Directions:
1. Put all the ingredients into your blender and puree until smooth. The finished result is smooth and creamy and, like this, is ideal as a dip. Once put in the fridge for a couple of hours it becomes a bit 'firmer' and is better for spreading (I also think it tastes better). The butter beans can be substituted for chick peas but I find the texture is creamer when using the butter beans. I always double up on this as it freezes very well with virtually no loss of flavor. Served as a dip it looks nice drizzled with good quality olive oil and sprinkled with cayenne pepper and a little parsley.
