White Bean Mash With Rosemary and Lemon
The easiest white bean mash made with cannellini beans, rosemary, lemon and garlic. A super quick and healthy alternative to mashed potatoes.
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 30 oz (840g) 30oz cannellini beans , pre-cooked
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 juice of 1 lemon
- zest of half a lemon
- 2 garlic cloves finely chopped
- 1 small bunch rosemary
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup (125ml) water or stock (optional)
Instructions
- Add one tablespoon of olive oil to a large pan and saute the garlic and rosemary for a few seconds, don't let the garlic brown.
- Add the cannellini beans with the lemon juice, zest, another tablespoon of olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the beans for 2-3 minutes, then start to mash them with a fork.
- At this point you can decide what consistency you'd like the bean mash to be. I like to mash around half of the beans for a rustic style mash. For a creamy consistency add a splash of water or stock (around 1/2cup/125ml) and mash them all with a fork until creamy.
