step 3
Season to perfection with a splash of red wine vinegar, sea salt and black pepper. Add the coriander leaves.
step 4
Serve into bowls with a dollop of yogurt and mango chutney, if you like, and mop up with bread of choice. Or pair with rice and top with grilled halloumi or paneer for something extra hearty.

Creamy White Beans

Our Organic White Beans are slow-cooked with a pinch of salt. Their ultra creaminess make them the perfect base for beany broths, a protein-rich mash or as a sub for rice in your favourite risotto. Don’t drain, rinse or throw that “bean-stock”, CELEBRATE IT. We love them in this miso bowl or the newly invented, BEAN-OTTO.
