Method
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the garlic, the rosemary leaves and the crushed chillies for 2 mins.
- Add the cannellini beans and 150ml water; season and cook for 6-7 mins, stirring often, until thickened.
- Blitz the baby spinach with 2 tbsp water in a food processor until smooth. Scrape into the beans, then cook for 2 mins or until thickened and bright green. Spoon over the sourdough toast and serve with the eggs, an extra drizzle of olive oil and the pecorino, if you like.
Tip: Use baby spinach, which has a milder, sweeter taste than mature spinach.
