Method
- Drain and rinse the cannellini beans. Crush the garlic, then zest the lemon finely and squeeze the juice.
- 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.
- 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.
- Peel the carrots and cut them and the celery sticks into batons about 8 cm long.
- 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.
- 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.
