Modern RedactionIngredients
400g dried, split broad (fava) beans Method:PreparationPlace the beans in a large bowl and cover with cold water (making sure there's at least 3cm of water above the beans). The following morning, drain the beans, place in a pan and add 600ml beef stock. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for about 40 minutes, until the beans have just softened (add more stock or water if needed). Take off the heat, allow to cool and pour into a food processor. Blitz the mixture to blend then add the red wine and blitz again. Blend to a smooth paste and return to the saucepan. Gently heat the mixture until it just comes back to the boil then turn off the heat. Meanwhile, add some butter to a frying pan and fry the shallots until they turn brown and slightly crispy. Spoon the bean mixture into a bowl, top with the fried onions and serve immediately. |
