Lemony Dill Dip

Ingredients

  • 1 fat clove garlic
  • ½ cup / 125ml tahini
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • ¼ cup / 60ml freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3 Tbsp. cold-pressed olive oil
  • 3 cups / 500g cooked pinto beans
  • 1 bunch fresh dill tender fronds only
  • 1 tsp. pure maple syrup
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • water to thin if desired

Directions

  • Place the garlic in a food processor and pulse to mince. Add the tahini, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, then blend until smooth (the mixture may seize up, but don’t worry!)
  • Add the beans, dill, maple syrup and blend on high until smooth, adding water to thin, if necessary.
  • Lastly, add salt and black pepper as desired. Keep blending and adjusting the seasoning to suit your taste.
