Method
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low heat. Add the rosemary leaves and cook for a few seconds, until it starts to sizzle. Drain the cooked beans, reserving their liquor, then add to the pan. Cook for about 20 minutes, stirring and adding some of the cooking liquor to stop the beans drying out, until they begin to break down. Mash with a fork to a rough purée or blitz in a food processor for a smoother houmous-like consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper and fold in the chopped tomatoes.
- Grill the bread slices in a griddle pan (or toast them). Rub the warm bread with the garlic halves and drizzle generously with some olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, top with the bean mixture and lightly drizzle again with oil. Serve topped with slices of Parma ham, if you like.
