Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 T sunflower oil
1 onion, sliced
100 g sultanas
1 x 2 cm piece ginger, grated
1 t dried chilli flakes
1 T mustard seeds
1 t ground coriander
1 t ground cumin
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 x 400 g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
2 T chopped coriander
2 garlic cloves, chopped finely
1 T lemon juice
1 T pomegranate molasses
1 T extra virgin olive oil
fresh bread, to serve

Method

Heat the sunflower oil in a pan. Cook the onion in the oil until caramelised, then add the sultanas, ginger, chilli flakes, mustard seeds, ground coriander, ground cumin and season to taste.

Cook for 5 minutes until a paste forms. Transfer to a bowl and add the cannellini beans, chopped coriander, garlic cloves, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses and olive oil.

Season to taste. Mix and serve with bread.

Cook's note: if you can't find or make pomegranate molasses, a mix of honey and a touch of Balsamic vinegar will be just as delicious.
