Ingredients
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 fresh green chillies, divided
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp. chilli powder
  • 14 oz. can kidney beans
  • 3/4 cup white cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 tbsp. lime juice
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated
  • For the Tortilla Triangles:
  • 3 tortillas
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • olive oil

Directions
  1. Slit the 2 green chillies, remove and discard the seeds. Chop the chillies finely.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan and saute the garlic, onion, green chillies and chilli powder over a medium-low heat. Stir frequently and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the onion has softened, but is not browned.
  3. Drain the kidney beans, reserving 3 tbsp. of the bean juice. Reserve 2 tbsp. of kidney beans and process the rest of the beans in a food processor to a puree.
  4. Add the pureed beans to the onion mixture in the pan, along with 3 tbsp. of reserved bean juice. Stir well and cook until heated through, for about 2 minutes.
  5. Stir in the reserved whole beans and grated Cheddar cheese. Cook and stir for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese melts. Season with salt and mix in lime juice. Spoon the dip into a serving bowl.
  6. Remove and discard the seeds from the remaining chilli pepper and slice it thin. Sautee the pepper in a separate small pan in a little bit of oil for 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle the chilli strips and Parmesan cheese over the top of dip for garnish. Serve with tortilla triangles, or your favourite chips.
  7. For the Tortilla triangles:
  8. Slice 3 tortillas in triangles. Place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Broil in the oven for about 3 minutes. Note: These cook super fast! Keep an eye on them and check every minute.

Steff, adding some chopped cilantro to the dip sounds yummy! Thanks for suggestion!


Bluewaterandsand, the hush puppies sound like a great accompaniment to this dip! The sweetness of those will go nicely with the spicyness of the dip. Thanks for a great idea!
