Whipped white bean dip with rosemary

Method

  1. Drain and rinse the cannellini beans. Crush the garlic, then zest the lemon finely and squeeze the juice.
  2. Put the beans, garlic, lemon juice, 2 tbsp of the olive oil, 3 tbsp of cold water and a good pinch of salt in a food processor or jug blender. Blend for about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides, until completely smooth and fluffy. Add a splash more water if it is stiff.
  3. Warm the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil and the dried rosemary in a small pan over a low heat for 1 minute, until fragrant. Keep it from sizzling hard.
  4. Peel the carrots and cut them and the celery sticks into batons about 8 cm long.
  5. Spoon the dip into a shallow bowl and press a well into the middle with the back of the spoon. Pour in the rosemary oil, scatter the lemon zest on top and add black pepper.
  6. Serve with the carrot and celery batons alongside.

Tip Blend for the full time; the longer it goes, the lighter and fluffier the dip gets.
