White Bean Mash
If you’re getting fed up with standard potato mash, why not try this alternative. Using cannellini beans cooked in stock with shallots and garlic – it’s amazing. You can use other beans too so experiment away.
This are a great side which is vegan and super tasty.

Ingredients
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 4 small shallots finely diced (or 2 large banana shallots)
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 tin Cannellini beans (or borlotti beans)
- Vegetable stock (to cover the beans)
- A handful of coriander including the stalks
- Maldon salt and pepper
- Dirty onion
Equipment
- A non stick pan – I use the amazing Tefal Ingenio stainless pans, or a cast iron skillet.
Method
- Preheat your Egg to 200°C and setup for a direct cook.
- Place your pan on the Egg to warm and add a little olive oil.
- Add in the shallots and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Now add the garlic and cook for a further 2 minutes until the shallots have softened.
- Add your drained beans to the pan with enough vegetable stock to cover them.
- Stir occasionally and cook until the beans have softened and the liquid thickened.
- Meanwhile chop your coriander finely.
- Once cooked take the beans off the Egg and mash with the back of a fork, leave a few good lumps for texture.
- Mix in the coriander and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Served with a topping of dirty onion if you like (the recipe is in the first part of my fajita recipe).
