Categories     Beans

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups fresh fava beans, washed
6 cups water
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
2 cups red onions, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Put the beans in a large pot and cover with the water. Boil until the beans are tender but not mushy. This could take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the freshness of the beans.
  • In a skillet, heat the oil until it is hot (but not smoking) and then saute the onion and garlic. Add the cayenne, cumin and salt. Cook until the onion has softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the onion and garlic mixture to the beans and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

I'm allergic to fava beans, so I can't try this recipe. It looks delicious though!

This recipe is way too spicy for my taste. I had to add a lot of yogurt to cool it down.

I followed the recipe exactly and my dish turned out bland and tasteless. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe is missing some essential ingredients. It needs more spices and some kind of sauce or gravy.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my fava beans turned out mushy. I think I might have cooked them for too long.

I'm not a big fan of fava beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The beans were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and complex.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover fava beans. I added some extra spices to give it a bit of a kick and it turned out delicious.
