White Bean Pate

Try this flavour-filled dip with carrots, capsicum and cucumber instead of crackers.

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small brown onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

440g can no-added-salt cannelini or butter beans, drained

1/2 lemon, juiced

2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Saute onion and garlic in a non-stick pan with oil until onion is soft. Remove from heat.
Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Put into a serving dish and chill until firm, approximately 30 minutes.
