Method

1. Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently fry the garlic for a minute or so.

2. Add the spring onions and fry for a further minute.

3. Add the beans, plus all their liquor and stir in the tomato puree.

4. Cook for 15-20 minutes, until the mixture is creamy, adding a little water if the consistency seems too dry. Season with salt and black pepper and a little dried chilli.

5. Lightly oil a griddle pan and set over a high heat. Cook the squid for 1 minute on each side.

6. Toss the squid with the lemon zest, juice and extra virgin olive oil.

7. Stir in the basil and season. Spoon the beans onto a warm platter, top with the squid and serve straight away.
