Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika and cumin, and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add three quarters of the black beans and the broth.
Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, then mash most of the beans against the side of the pan with a spoon, until the mixture turns thick and mostly smooth.
Stir in the remaining whole beans and the lime juice.
Spoon into a bowl and set it into the board with the scoop chips.
Good to Know
Swap the broth for the liquid from the can if a thinner dip is fine, it cuts one ingredient without changing the flavor much.
