Cook the butter beans with just salt, enough water to cover by a couple inches and a drizzle of olive oil. Pressure cooker on high for 25 minutes then allow pressure to release naturally for at least 15 minutes. Or cook on the stovetop for aprox. 60-90 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium low.
Combine the vinegar, 1 clove garlic, cumin, paprika, honey, salt and olive oil in a small bowl and set aside.
Drizzle the carrots with olive oil then generously season them with salt and pepper tossing to coat.
Grill the carrots 5-8 minutes per side until they have grill marks and are fork tender.
Remove and allow to cool.
Put the beans in a blender with a tablespoon of the cooking liquid, lemon juice, 1/2 clove of garlic, a sprinkle of salt and freshly cracked pepper. Blend until smooth.
Spread the bean puree on the bottom of a serving plate.
Toss the carrots in the dressing, use tongs to place the carrots on top of the bean puree, sprinkle with parsley and nigella seeds and enjoy.
