Warm beans with fragrant rosemary, garlic and a little chilli.

400 g canned butter beans, drained
1 clove garlic, sliced
2 sprig rosemary
1 pinch chilli flakes, optional
3 tbsp olive oil

Pour the olive oil into a wide frying pan set over a medium flame. Add the sliced garlic, rosemary sprigs and, if you like some heat, the chilli flakes.
As soon as the garlic smells fragrant, tip in the drained butter beans. Keep them moving for 4–5 minutes until they are warmed right through and catching a little colour at the edges.
Taste, add salt and pepper, and bring the pan to the table while the beans are still warm.
