Ingredients:


2 cups broad beans -- large soaked for about 24-hours

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 medium onions -- chopped

4 cloves garlic -- crushed

1 medium hot pepper -- finely chopped

2 medium tomatoes -- chopped into small pieces

1 medium carrot -- finely chopped

1 medium potato -- diced into 1/2-inch cubes

1/2 cup finely chopped coriander leaves

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon cumin

8 cups water
 

Preparation / Directions:


Drain beans, remove skins, and set beans aside. Heat oil in a saucepan; then saute onions, garlic, and hot pepper for 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and bring to boil. Cover and cook over medium heat for 1 hour or until broad beans are well-cooked, stirring a few times and adding more water if necessary. Note: 4 cups of pre-cooked fava beans can be substituted for the 2 cups of dry beans. If the cooked fava beans are used, cook the soup for only about 40 minutes.
