- Then, add your garlic.

- Now, it’s time to add your remaining beans and a pinch of salt, blend once again and your dip is almost perfect!
- Finally, grate some fresh parmesan into the mix, for a final kick of flavour along with 1 ½ tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- Now, place the whole focaccia into the oven for around 2 minutes.
- Blast your mix for one more minute and your bean dip will be ready and smelling delicious!
- Grab a chopping board and remove the bread from the oven, careful not to burn yourself.
- The bread should be nice and crunchy – if not, leave it in the oven for just a little longer, but make sure it doesn’t go hard.
- Now, slice your bread into small strips.
- E ora si mangia, Vincenzo’s Plate….Enjoy!
