Prep
- Soak beans: Cover SIMPLi Fava Beans in cold water overnight (12 hrs). Quick method: Boil beans in 4 cups water for 2 minutes, then remove from heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour. Drain and rinse.
- Cook beans: Place soaked beans in a pot with 8 cups water. Simmer gently for ~2 hours, or until tender. Drain and season with ½ teaspoon salt. Allow to cool slightly.
- (Optional) Remove loose skins from beans for a lighter texture.
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine cooked fava beans, cherry tomatoes, red onion, mint, lemon juice, Ras El Hanout, olive oil, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently until well mixed.
- Taste and adjust with more salt, black pepper, or spice blend as desired.
- Chill for at least 15 minutes before serving.
