How to Make Fool Or Fl Medammes Fava Bean Salad

  1. Sort through 1 pound (450g) dried fava beans, removing any debris. Rinse thoroughly under cold water.
  2. Place the cleaned fava beans in a large bowl and cover with enough cold water to submerge them by 2 inches (5cm). Let them soak for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.
  3. Drain the soaked beans completely.
  4. Transfer the beans to a large saucepan. Add fresh water to cover the beans by 2 inches (5cm).
  5. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the beans are very tender and easily mashed.
  6. Drain the cooked fava beans well, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
  7. Transfer the beans to a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup (115g) finely chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons (30ml) lemon juice, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Gently mash the beans with a fork or potato masher to your desired consistency. Add a little of the reserved cooking liquid if needed to reach your desired creaminess.
  9. Gently stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  10. Garnish with 1 hard-boiled egg, sliced.
  11. Serve immediately or chill for later. Yield: 8 servings
