Directions

For the beans
1

Add the beans to a blender or food processor with the crushed garlic, lemon juice and zest and blitz until you reach a smooth, creamy consistency. At this stage, you may want to add the reserved tablespoons of bean stock to loosen the mixture and to give it it’s creaminess - you’re going for a lovely thick hummus consistency.

For the Salsa Verde
2

Put all the ingredients for the salsa in a bowl and mix to a coarse salsa. Don’t be tempted to do this in a food processor: you want to keep that rustic texture, not a refined, smooth paste.

To Assemble
3

Toast your bread and roughly slice into crotini-sized pieces, slightly bigger than a mouthful.

4

Spoon roughly 2 tsp of the white bean dip onto the crostini and dollop over the salsa verde. Repeat this for all of the crostinis.

5

Serve as a festive canapé or appetiser for your festive spreads
