Cook’s tip: Boost your plant points
"Rather than using two jars of butterbeans, use two different types of white bean to easily double the plant points - and reap the health benefits of both. You can also include fresh parsley or coriander in the garlic drizzle as well as a sprinkling of paprika. Go to town with seasonal vegetable crudités to pack in even more plants."

step 1
Pour the beans, including the liquid from one jar, into a food processor. Add the oil, lemon juice, tahini and plenty of salt and pepper. Blitz for 3-4 mins or until smooth and creamy. Add a little more lemon juice or olive oil to adjust the consistency to your liking, if necessary. Spoon into a serving bowl.

step 2
For the garlic drizzle, gently heat the oil in a small pan, then sprinkle in the aleppo pepper, chilli powder and garlic. Cook for 2-3 mins or until sizzling and fragrant. Season with salt.

Pour the drizzle straight over the dip. Sprinkle with the chives and serve with crudités and crackers for dipping. The dip will keep in the fridge for two days.
