Ingredients
200-250 g cooked scarlet runner beans
50 g sunflower seeds
1/16 l water
1 clove of garlic
1 onion
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp fresh herbs (parsley, basil, savoury)
Salt, freshly ground pepper
Preparation
Puree the well-drained beans with the sunflower seeds, while slowly adding approx. 1/16 litre of ice-cold water to give the cream a fluffy consistency.
Finely chop the onion and garlic and fry lightly in oil. Leave to cool and add to the bean mixture.
Season to taste with herbs and spices.
Tips
- Walnuts are a good alternative to sunflower seeds.
- For a creamy consistency, puree the roasted onion and garlic with the beans.
- Add a peeled tomato for a variation in flavour
