This is an EXCELLENT dish to make for suhr during Ramadan! It's really easy to make, and very yummy! Ingredients:
1 (20 ounce) can fava beans |
1 garlic clove |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped |
1 small tomato (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a frying pan, add the olive oil and garlic, stir for a minute or so to bring out flavor.
2. Peel the fava beans before adding them to the frying pan. This makes for a smoother dish.
3. Add the lemon juice and salt. Mix together and cover for a minute or two.
4. If you have a nice, ripe tomato, dice it small and add it to the frying pan. It gives a real nice flavor to the dish. If its not ripe, leave the tomato out.
5. Cover and let simmer for 2-3 minutes, mixing occasionaly.
6. Turn off the fire, and take a fork and smash all the ingredients together. You dont want to make it a smooth paste like hummous, but rather one with little chunks in it.
7. Garnish with parsley and olive oil. This is normally served with pita bread. Enjoy!
