FOUL MUDAMMAS (EGYPTIAN FAVA BEANS)



Foul Mudammas (Egyptian Fava Beans) image

Foul mudammas recipe, made with hearty, creamy fava beans and loaded with flavor from ground cumin, fresh herbs, and a zippy lemon garlic sauce with hot peppers! Don't worry, the sauce is not spicy, but it adds just the right kick. I use a shortcut in this quick fava beans recipe. Serve it with warm pita bread and sliced veggies. Or turn it into a big vegan feast with falafel and sides like tahini, hummus, and roasted cauliflower!

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) can fava beans (you can find at any middle eastern store, maybe even like a trader joe's or organic store)
1 small lemon, juice of, only
3 tablespoons canola oil (or any oil you prefer)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 onion (Small size and chopped- optional, if you don't want to use just skip step number 1)
pita bread

Steps:

  • Chop up a small onion with a bit of oil and sauté in small pot until tender, remove from heat.
  • Open can of fava beans and dump into pot, along with juices, do not drain.
  • Take a potato smasher and smash up the fava beans. I leave a few whole, but basically smash up most of them.
  • Add salt, ground cumin and cayenne pepper to your liking.
  • Squeeze juice of lemon into pot.
  • Add a splash of olive oil.
  • Heat just to boil and then that's it.
  • Spoon some beans into a flat bowl, splash some oil on top of them. I like to add the following garnish, but you can leave garnish out and just eat that way they are just as yummy too.
  • This is something I do sometimes to this dish as well-MY SPECIAL GARNISH. 1. Chop a few slices of red onion fine. 2. Chop a small (or half) green bell pepper finely. 3. Chop a handful of black olive slices finely. 4. Chop a small tomato finely. 5. A little bit of chopped parsley 6. Drizzle of tahina.
  • Okay now you add all these finely chopped veggies around the bowl edge and finish off with a drizzle of tahina in middle of bowl. Looks beautiful! Then i mix all together and eat it mixed up!
