Broad Bean Hummus

Sue Daniels

My broad beans in the garden had gone pass their tender stage but I didn’t want to waste them, so I created this recipe and it is amazing! You could use frozen beans if you don’t grow your own of course. Mint could be replaced with fresh garlic according to your own taste

There's more where this came from!

Ingredients

160g broad beans
Juice 1/2 small lemon
10-12 mint leaves
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra
Zest of small lemon
Salt, to taste
