Marinated Butter Beans

As soon as the sun comes out, THIS is the dish we're making. No cook. No faff. BIG on flavour. The flavours resemble a deconstructed pesto - which you can leave it to do it's thing for as long or as little as you like.
Ideal with crusty bread as a summer appetiser or light lunch.
