HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Drain and rinse the canned fava beans thoroughly. Place them in a small saucepan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

02

Heat the fava beans over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through. Use a fork or potato masher to lightly mash about half of the beans, leaving some whole for texture.

03

Stir in the chopped fresh parsley, minced garlic, ground cumin, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper into the fava beans. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

04

While the fava beans are heating, toast the sourdough bread slices to your desired crispness.

05

Evenly spread the warm ful medames mixture over the toasted bread slices. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil before serving.

Chef's Tips

For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the fava bean mixture. A sprinkle of feta cheese or a dollop of plain yogurt can also complement the flavors beautifully.

Easy Substitutions

If you don't have sourdough, any sturdy bread like whole wheat or ciabatta will work well. Canned chickpeas can be used in place of fava beans for a different but equally delicious spread.

Storage & Reheating

This dish is best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftover ful medames mixture, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop before serving on freshly toasted bread.
