10 minute Butter Bean Recipe

Sweat finely sliced garlic til soft.
Add cooked butter beans to garlic and stir until thoroughly warmed.
Add a little oil/ butter/ stock or if you have none of those, water.
Mash with a large spoon.

Serve instead of mashed spuds.

Particularly good with grated cheese and steamed greens, meat or veggie sausages and, for omnivores, grilled or roasted lamb.

Hilariously, I actually read it in Nigella's cookery column in Vogue when I was 19! (I have since seen it elsewhere.) I eat it atleast once a week though. It's comfort food, but healthy and interesting.
