SERVING
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 large potatoes
8-10 sage leaves
225g butterbeans (1 can)
150g frozen peas (thaw them in hot water for 1 min)
100g ricotta (optional)
Juice of half a lemon
2 garlic cloves
1 large handful of basil leaves
Salt & pepper
2-3 tablespoons butter
1/2 tablespoon lemon zest
Handful grated parmesan
Method
– Slice and boil potatoes until just cooked. Don’t let them boil for too long.
– While the potatoes are boiling add the following to a high speed blender or a magic bullet: butterbeans, frozen peas (run it through hot water once or twice), ricotta (if using), lemon juice, garlic, basil, parmesan, lemon zest, salt and pepper
– Blend everything until smooth. You might have to stop and scrape the sides a couple of times. The ricotta is optional. If you’re not adding it, you can add a splash of water instead as needed.
– Once the potatoes are done, add some butter and sage to a pan and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the potatoes and cook on medium-high until nice and crispy.
– Note: The dip might be a bit runny, but will firm up very nicely in the fridge. It makes more than you need for this recipe, but it stores well in the fridge for a couple of days. So good with all vegetables or in sandwiches.
– Serve the wedges over a bed of the dip and enjoy.
Bon Appétit!
