Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak the Fava Beans

    Rinse the fava beans under cold water. Place them in a bowl and cover with water. Soak overnight or for at least 8 hours.

  2. 2

    Cook the Fava Beans

    Drain the soaked fava beans and place them in a pot. Add 4 cups of fresh water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for about 1 hour or until the beans are tender.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Garlic

    While the beans are cooking, finely chop the garlic cloves.

Mixing

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the fava beans are cooked and soft, drain them while reserving some of the cooking liquid. In a large bowl, mash the beans slightly using a fork or potato masher.

  2. 5

    Flavor the Mixture

    Add the chopped garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well to combine, adjusting seasoning to taste. If the mixture is too thick, add some reserved cooking liquid to reach desired consistency.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Foul Moudamas

    Transfer the foul moudamas to a serving dish. Top with chopped parsley, chopped tomatoes, and chopped onion.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Drizzle with additional olive oil if desired. Serve warm with pita bread or as a dip.
