Instructions for Quick and Easy Chilli Bean Dip:

  1. Heat the oil: Begin by heating a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil in a medium-sized pan. This will create a flavorful base for your dip.

  2. Sauté the aromatics: Add the finely chopped garlic and spring onions to the pan. Sauté them on medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until they soften and become fragrant.

  3. Add the baked beans: Open the can of baked beans and add them to the pan. Stir to combine with the garlic and onions.

  4. Spices and seasoning: Sprinkle in the cumin powder (which should be roasted and ground to a paste) and red chili powder. Mix well so the beans are evenly coated with the spices. Allow the mixture to cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes.

  5. Mash the beans: Use a potato masher to gently mash the baked beans. Aim for a coarser texture so that the dip still has some chunkiness. This will give the dip its desired consistency.

  6. Add cheese spread: Stir in the Mexican Chilli Cheese Spread. This will not only enhance the flavor but also provide a rich, creamy texture. Mix everything thoroughly until the cheese spread melts and integrates smoothly into the dip.

  7. Adjust seasoning: Taste the dip and adjust the salt as needed. Add more if desired to bring out the flavors.

  8. Garnish and serve: Garnish the dip with finely chopped coriander leaves for a fresh and vibrant finish. Serve your Quick and Easy Chilli Bean Dip hot with a side of tortilla chips for the perfect appetizer.


Tips for Serving:

  • Tortilla Chips: This dip is perfect when paired with crispy tortilla chips. You can also use pita chips, crackers, or even fresh vegetables like carrot sticks and cucumber slices.

  • Make it Spicier: For those who love a fiery kick, consider adding some chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce into the dip.

  • Make Ahead: This dip can be made a few hours in advance and stored in the fridge. Reheat it gently on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
