Instructions
-
Heat the oven to 190°C/170°C fan. Slice the top from the garlic bulb, drizzle with a little olive oil, wrap loosely in foil and roast for 30–35 minutes until soft and golden.
-
Allow the garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze the soft cloves from their skins.
-
Add the roasted garlic, cannellini beans, lemon zest and juice, tahini, cold water, salt and pepper to a food processor.
-
Blend until smooth and creamy, adding another splash of water if needed. Taste and adjust the lemon and seasoning.
-
Spoon into a small serving bowl, swirl the top with olive oil and scatter with parsley and black pepper. Serve with toasted flatbread and vegetable crudités.
Note
The dip keeps in the fridge for up to three days. Bring it towards room temperature and add a fresh drizzle of olive oil before serving.
