Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups canned black beans
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Rinse and drain the canned black beans thoroughly under cool running water.
Peel the garlic cloves and roughly chop them to make blending easier.
In a food processor or blender, combine the black beans, garlic, lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Blend the ingredients until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time and blend until desired consistency is reached.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning if needed by adding more salt, lime juice, or spices.
If desired, chop the fresh cilantro and blend it into the dip or sprinkle it on top as a garnish.
Transfer the black bean dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or toast. You can also refrigerate the dip in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
