Background
In my pantry I always keep tins of beans and jars of anchovies (in oil) because sometime I just don’t have time to cook yet want to eat something healthy and filling. On these occasions this anchovy and beans salad is on of favourite dishes - sometimes I add other jarred veggies too such as artichokes, grilled pepper and olives - but this is my basic recipe which is yummy, filling, low-carb and gluten-free.
Ingredients
- 1 tin cannellini beans
- 1 celery stick
- 4 salad onions
- 1 clove of garlic
- 4 slices of anchovy jarred in oil
- ½ lemon, juiced and zested
Instructions
- Drain the beans, then scatter them into a mixing bowl.
- Thinly slice the celery and salad onions, then mince the garlic. Add these to the beans.
- Take the anchovies out of the jar and chop them roughly. Add them to the beans, together with some oil from the jar.
- Add the lemon juice and zest.
- Season to taste then toss gently. You can add a few leaves of basil, parsley, dill or chives.
