1 red pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
4 small, long, yellow zucchini squash, sliced
small zucchini, sliced
1 pound fava beans, shelled
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
Small bunch basil leaves, left whole

Steps:

Cut the red pepper into strips and place the strips face down on a piece of foil paper placed on a broiling rack. Broil until the skin blisters. Place in a bag and seal. When the peppers have cooled, peel off the skin. Cut the strips into one-inch pieces and set aside.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet and add the squash and zucchini. Brown lightly on both sides. Steam the fava beans.
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the zucchini and cook for two to three minutes, stirring. Add the fava beans, peppers and basil leaves. Stir fry for a minute. Serve hot or cold.
