Top tips....
For a chunkier version of this delicious pate, use a potato masher to mash all the soft ingredients together in a large bowl, adding the chopped garlic and spring onions after.
If using fresh beans, boil and imediately refresh (drop into ice cold water) this will retain the vibrancy of the beans and allow to cool before blending.
Try this with Chick peas.
A vegan cheese can be added in place of cream, or thick Soya cream.
