Saw this recipe linked to on Twitter, looks nice. Broad beans are one of the things we'll probably grow when we have a garden, and are so easy, but you can get a glut and it's nice to have some alternative uses:
6 oz / 160g broad beans
juice 1/2 small lemon
10-12 mint leaves
4 Tbspns olive oil, plus extra
2 Tbspns water
zest of small lemon
½tspn salt
Method
Boil or steam the beans for 3-5 minutes, until tender. Older beans may need longer cooking.
Cool.
Blitz beans, salt, lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, water and mint until smooth in a processor or with a hand held stick blender,
Taste for seasoning. Add more olive oil on top and a bit of chopped mint.
Serve with crusty bread or crackers.
