serves/makes:

ready in:
1-2 hrs

ingredients

1 can (16 ounce size) cooked fava beans
1 large onion, chopped
1 large tomato, diced
1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
2 lemons, juiced
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
cayenne pepper to taste
pita bread (optional)

directions

Pour the beans into a pot and bring to a boil for about 1 - 2 hours.

Mix them well and add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil again, then reduce to medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes.

This dish is usually eaten with bread (Pita). I found that certain ingredients like; oil (olive, corn.. etc.), vinegar, lemon juice, black pepper, cumin, salt, tomatoes, onions (spring, white, red .. etc.), parsley, shatta (dry, fresh) form the basis of most recipes.

Take your pick and mix it in any way you want depending on your mode and availability. Having said that we should not forget taheena and eggs.
