PREPARATION:

PREPARATION:

White bean pate:

1. In a food processor or on a plate with a fork, pulse/mash the white beans with the olive oil, lemon juice and garlic clove until they form a paste.
2. Transfer the paste to a bowl and add the chopped chilli and chopped herbs (coriander/parsley and green onion) and mix again.
3. Season with salt, pepper and cumin (optional) and mix well.
4. Cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate until ready to serve.
5. If you wish to serve with vegetables on sticks, peel/cut them 30 minutes before serving, keeping them covered and in the refrigerator.

FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:

1. When ready to serve, add the lemon zest and mix.
2. Arrange the white bean pate in a glass or bowl and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to liven it up.
3. Tip: Serve accompanied by vegetable sticks (carrot, celery, fennel, Japanese cucumber).
