Broad bean & ricotta dip

Hello :) First of all, I hope your Australia Day was fab! I had a great time wandering around the city, sipping lemonade & listening to choirs and jazz bands. I listened to triple J's hottest 100 in the afternoon and finished the day off with some vegemite toast, which seemed appropriate!

Well today, I have a really good dip recipe to share. My Nanna made this dip on Christmas day actually, and I've finally got around to making it too :) It's made with broad beans, ricotta & feta, and at first I thought it was guacamole! It's a little fiddly, as you have to peel the broad beans- but it's worth it. The dip has a beautiful creamy texture, perfect for dipping in vegetable sticks & crackers! And I used frozen broad beans too (so much cheaper!)
