Mehmet's Broad Beans image

This recipe has a most romantic source. A few years ago my husband and I chartered a small gulet to explore the coast of Turkey. Our captain, cook and guide was Mehmet. We moved around the Gulf of Fethiye, looking at ruins and swimming by day, mooring each night in a different place. One night, Mehmet cooked these beans and gave me the recipe. I'm very happy that I can share it with you.

Mehmet's broad beans were a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili pepper or omitting it altogether.

The broad beans were delicious, but I found the sauce to be a bit too salty for my taste. Next time, I'll use less salt or add a touch of sweetness to balance it out.

Mehmet's broad beans were a delight! The beans were perfectly cooked, tender yet still retaining a slight bite. The flavors of the garlic, cumin, and lemon blended harmoniously, creating a dish that was both flavorful and refreshing.
