Broad Beans

Flavoursome broad beans grown on the Canterbury Plains. Harvested in their prime and snap frozen to help retain their natural goodness and distinctively nutty flavour.

Method

Step 1

Plunge the Wattie's Broad Beans into boiling water. Return to the boil and then simmer for 2 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water. Squeeze the small green beans from their skins, discarding the skins.

Step 2

Mash the beans with a fork. Mash the flesh of the avocado with a fork and add to the broad beans, with the lemon juice, crumbled feta and mint. Mix well. Season with black pepper.

Step 3

Serve on toasted ciabatta bread.

Tips

Place a slice of prosciutto on the ciabatta before topping with the spread.

Spoon onto toasted ciabatta and garnish with cooked prawns and a little mayonnaise.

For something different, try using Wattie's Frozen Baby Peas instead of Broad Beans.
