Ingredients

  • 1 can of fava beans
  • 1 small clove of garlic
  • a good pinch of salt
  • a pinch of cumin ¼ tsp
  • a good squeeze of lemon ½ lemon
  • a tiny pinch of chilli flakes
  • a small drizzle of tahini 1-2 tbsp
  • a small drizzle of pomegrante mollases 1-2 tbsp
  • a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil 2-3 tbsp

Instructions

  1. Open a can of fava beans and rinse the beans. Transfer to a small pot and cover with water and heat up until it boils for a good few minutes

  2. Meanwhile in a wide bowl, add the salt and crush the garlic clove with a pestle. Add the cumin, chilli flakes and lemon juice. Mix

  3. Add the foul to the bowl, taking a little splash of the water as you do not want the beans too dry or too runny.
  4. Partially press some of the beans with a fork so some are squished and some are not.

  5. Shake the tahini tub and add a small drizzle along with the pomegranate molasses and swirl

  6. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary before adding a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
