Artichoke, lemon and white bean pâté crispbreads
Item 1 of 1
This easy pâté recipe takes seconds to make and sees the comforting flavours of butter beans and artichokes livened up with plenty of lemon. On top are some quick-pickled shallots for added tang and toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch. Feel free to use a vegetarian hard cheese instead of pecorino if you wish.
