Broad Beans- فول أخضر بالزيت




Broad Beans cooked in olive oil:
-One Kilo ( About 2 pounds) Broad Beans OR Fava beans- You may use fresh if they are available in season, I usually cook them with the shell , I just take the ends off and I peel the strings on the sides.  If fresh broad beans are not in season, you may use frozen ones.
-Olive Oil
-Diced Large Onion
-Fresh Cilantro
-Minced Garlic
-Salt and Black pepper to taste
Directions:
-Sauté onions in olive oil
-Add fresh or frozen broad beans and cook until done. Make sure they are firm and not mushy at the end of the cooking processes
-Season with salt and pepper
-Add fresh chopped cilantro and garlic towards the end of the cooking period-It takes around 30-40 minutes to cook this dish.
Serve with fresh lemons on the side and pita bread.
Enjoy!
