Step 1

I used one tin of Egyptian fava beans and 1 ton of Saudi fava beans (I prefer the Saudi ones overall but a mix of both is perfect). The seasonings are all up to you really so taste as you go and add whatever you like.

Step 2

To a large saucepan drizzle olive oil and sauté your onions and garlic until soft.

Step 3

Then add chopped tomatoes and seasonings, stir well, and allow to cook for around 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add your fava beans and mix well. Cook for around 4-5 minutes and use a potato masher to mash around 60% of the fava beans (based on personal preference can mush it all to make it a dip or as little as you like).

Step 5

Taste and add more of any seasonings and add the juice of half a lemon. Stir and cook for a further 4-5 mins. I prefer mine not soupy but not dry either, can add some hot water if it’s looking dry and continue cooking for 2 mins.

Step 6

Garnish with parsley (and drizzle of oil olive oil when serving (optional).

Step 7

Serve with toasted sourdough + chopped red onion, tomato and extra lemon juice. I recommend chopping 1 red onion and 1 tomato (amounts are up to you really), add lemon juice and around 1/2 tsp salt and mix well. This keeps well in the fridge and is great with lots of dishes!
