BESSARA (DRIED FAVA BEAN SOUP)



Bessara (Dried Fava Bean Soup) image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     weekday, soups and stews, appetizer, side dish

Time 4h45m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound skinless, split dried fava beans
Salt to taste
5 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 to 1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons cumin
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
1 large bunch coriander chopped, about 1/2 cup

Steps:

  • Soak the beans in water for 2 hours, drain and put in a pot with 2 quarts of cold water. Bring to a boil, skim and simmer, covered, for 2 hours, until the beans are very soft. Add the salt and mash the beans by hand or, for a smoother texture, puree in a blender and return to the pot.
  • Fry the garlic in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the paprika, cumin, turmeric and cayenne. Add to the soup and simmer for 30 minutes longer, adding water if the soup becomes too thick. Just before serving, stir in the lemon juice and the coriander. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

BISSARA (FAVA BEAN PUREE)



Bissara (Fava Bean Puree) image

This is my quick version of a recipe from International Vegetarian. Bissara is a Moroccan dip that is similar in its presentation (but not taste) to the more common hummus. Enjoy this with pita bread (fresh or toasted) or cut up vegetables. Traditionally, this is served with a generous drizzle of olive oil on top of the prepared spread both for flavor and to act as a preservative. Though I never do, you are free to so.

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans fava beans
2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
1/4 cup vegetable broth or 1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/4-1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 1/4 teaspoons paprika (I like smoked best)
1/4-3/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
4 -6 tablespoons olive oil (optional)
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Thoroughly rinse and drain the fava beans.
  • In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for a minute. Add fava beans, vegetable broth, ¼ teaspoon of paprika, ½ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon of cayenne. Cook three to five minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are warmed. Begin to mash the beans by hand or with a masher. You are looking for a consistency that is not solid but thick enough to be scooped up using bread. If it seems too thick, thin with additional broth or water.
  • Mix remaining spices together and reserve.
  • To serve, place Bissara into a shallow soup bowl or dessrt plate with a high lip. Sprinkle ¼ of the mixed spices. Drizzle additional oil on top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
  • Serve warm or hot.
