This is a perfect winter snack or side dish and it's very, very quick.
I must admit that sometimes when I'm lazy (like last night) I just eat this for dinner with nothing else. It's deliciously tangy.
Cannellini Beans with Chilli & Lemon
Anna's very own recipe. Serves 2 as a side.
Ingredients:
400g can cannellini beans, drained
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 red chilli, seeds removed and chopped very finely
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon white wine
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
½ tablespoon chives, finely chopped
Salt and pepper
Method:
1. Heat olive oil in frying pan, add garlic, onion chilli and sauté until soft.
2. Add beans and white wine and fry until beans are warmed through. Add lemon juice and fry until the beans are moist but not wet.
3. Stir herbs through beans, remove from heat and serve.
Note: You could use any kind of canned beans e.g. borlotti or butter.
I`ve never heard about Cannellini before & I had to look it up - I was surprised that it actually is called the same in swedish :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good recipe! I`ll have to save it & try it sometime :-)
