Foul

Directions

1. 1
   Soak dried fava beans in enough water to cover them by an inch overnight.
2. 2
   Drain the fava beans and add them into a pot with enough water to cover them by an inch. Cook on medium-low heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, adding water as necessary, until they fall apart and can easily be squished between two fingers.
3. 3
   Fry the onion in the olive oil in a saucepan until translucent, then add the garlic and fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add in the tomato and fry for a couple minutes until broken down. Add 1 1/2 cups of the fava beans, cumin, and salt and pepper to taste.
4. 4
   Heat through and serve with a drizzle of olive oil, bread, labnah, and hummus.
