Ingredients
- 2 cans black beans (14oz)
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeds removed and diced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a skillet on medium heat, add the oil, diced onions and a pinch of sea salt. Stir to combine then add the minced garlic and jalapeno. Cook on a low to medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes to help sweat the onions, be careful not to brown the ingredients.
- While the onions are cooking, strain and rinse the black beans. Give them a good rinse in order to remove the liquid present in the can.
- Once the onions have cooked, add the cumin, chili powder and oregano to the pan for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Transfer the onion mixture and black beans to a food processor. Add the chopped cilantro and lime juice, and blend until smooth.
- If the dip is too thick you may need to add a little extra lime juice or water to help thin it out. Just a splash or tablespoon.
- Serve warm or cold with fresh veggies and tortilla chips.
- Enjoy!
