This budget-friendly Turkish meze turns leftover cooked white beans into a smooth dip with tahini, lemon, and olive oil. Straining the mixture to achieve a silky texture is the most hands-on step.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Mash the Beans

15 min

Coarsely mash the leftover cooked white beans with a fork or in a blender.

2

Mix the Ingredients

10 min

Add the tahini, lemon juice, crushed garlic, cumin, and salt, then mix thoroughly.

3

Strain the Dip

10 min

Press the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer for a smoother texture. If needed, add a few spoonfuls of water to adjust the consistency.

4

Serve

5 min

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Turkish red pepper flakes and parsley before serving.

Reminder

Be patient when straining the dip; rushing can leave fibrous pieces and keep the texture from becoming smooth. Contains sesame (tahini).

Fasulyeyi tarifte önerildiği gibi yalnızca çatalla ezince pürüzsüz olmadı, süzgeçten geçirmem gerektiğini fark ettim; bu yüzden hazırlık tahmin ettiğimden çok daha uzun sürdü. Kıvamı inceltmek için 6 kaşık kadar su eklemem gerekti, yine de istediğim kadar pürüzsüz olmadı.
