The perfect partner for dipping crunchy carrot sticks or warm pitta into, hummus has become a firm favourite in households everywhere. Rather than just picking a pot up from the supermarket, why not try whipping up your own? We’ve used butter beans instead of chickpeas here for a twist on a classic, as they’re just as creamy and full of goodness. Simmering the oregano in hot water first makes sure the robust flavour of this herb is truly drawn out and ready to add full flavour your dip. Pair the infused oregano water with zingy lemon, garlic and a pop of chilli before whizzing it all up in a food processor with the butter beans. The cherry on the cake here is the salty crumbled feta and tangy sundried tomatoes on top – heaven in a bowl!
