Ingredients:
1/2 medium onion, chopped |
1 1/2 cloves garlic, minced |
1 medium tomatoes, chopped |
1 1/2 cup fava beans, rinsed and drained |
1/2 tsp. ground cumin |
1/8 tsp. cayenne or red chili pepper |
1 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice |
1/2 cup parsley |
Directions:
1. Sauté the onion and garlic in a large, non-stick skillet for about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for another 4 minutes. Stir in the fava beans, cumin, and red pepper, and cook on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes.
2. Remove from the heat and mash the fava beans lightly, right in the skillet, until most of the beans are mashed. Scoop into a serving bowl, and mix in the lemon juice and parsley. Serve with warm pita bread.
3. Hint: Look for canned fava beans in Middle Eastern grocery stores. Some common spellings are ful medames, foul moudammes, foul mudammes, and foul moudammas.
