These Butter Beans are truly delicious!  I did not have all the ingredients on hand, but I thought with a few substitutions they would turn out okay! I did not have coconut milk, so I substituted evaporated milk, and just about a 1/3 of a can, as I read the comment about them turning out soupy.  I also did not have oregano, but I did have Italian seasoning and thought that would be similar enough.  For the rest, I followed the recipe.  I will make these beans again using the ingredients that I lacked this time, but in any case, they came out very, very good! Thank you, I am trying to find more vegetarian meals, and this is a keeper!

I made this today. I had a bag of baby lima beans I cooked. Then followed the recipe. Mine also was very soupy. I strained the beans and poured back some of the liquid. Then I froze the rest of the liquid for future use. Very tasty.

Love this recipe - so easy and quick and tasty! I freeze portions to have for lunches at work with a pitta bread. I've found a quick blast of the hand blender makes the consistency nice and thick (I use Bold Beans Queen Butter Beans which are big so need some help!).

Lovely recipe which I will definitely make again.

As others have said mine was rather soupy so I needed two jars of queen butterbeans. 

Always happy to have extra for further meals so no problem. 

Thank you.

Hello! Thanks for the delicious recipe. It came out very nicely. I used canellini beans because that's what I had. The spices plus lemon juice and coconut milk are a perfect balance. I added sliced roasted fennel bulbs to the mix (needed using) and served over quinoa. Thanks again!

Maybe the best butterbeans I have ever had, and I live in the South. Mine were a little soupy, but a second can of butterbeans easily fixed that.

This is a 10/10. lazy, tasty dinner. Will definitely run thinner with store brand beans!!! But what great opportunity to use some crusty bread to soak up the goodness. Canned coconut milk, not the coconut milk in a carton for drinks by the almond milk.

Delicious! Made this as a meal prep for lunch and can confirm it freezes/defrosts/reheats very well. For me it made 2 portions (as a main meal) and I scooped it onto some garlic naans. Lovely warmth to the dish and I just LOVE butterbeans. Thanks for sharing - will make again!

This dish is so good! The beans are so creamy and flavorful, and the spices give them a nice zesty kick. I also love that this recipe is so easy to make, it's definitely a weeknight keeper!

I love a bit of heat and these Zesty Butter Beans are my new favorite! Will be making this again as my holiday side dish!

I adore butter beans! Sometimes they're harder to find so I swap out cannellini beans but nothing compares to the smooth and creamy texture of butter beans. This recipe is a gem for making a vegetarian dish taste so good even my meat loving husband enjoys them!
