Comment préparer

1
Combine the drained fava beans and water in a wide saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are very soft and the liquid is slightly thickened.
2
Stir in the grated garlic, cumin, and salt. Mash roughly one-third of the beans against the side of the pan, leaving the remainder intact, and simmer for 3 minutes until fragrant.

3
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in 30 ml of the olive oil and the lemon juice. Taste and adjust the salt or lemon; add a splash of water if the beans seem dry.
4
Spoon the ful into a shallow serving bowl. Make a few wells in the surface and drizzle with the remaining 30 ml olive oil, then scatter with the chopped parsley.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne
