Steps

1. 1

   If using fresh fava beans, peel them and place in boiling salted water for 3 minutes, drain, and when cooled, peel. Set aside. Finely chop the coriander and mash the garlic with a little salt until it becomes like a paste (this recipe requires one teaspoon of mashed garlic). Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a small frying pan and sauté the garlic and coriander for 10 seconds, stirring with a wooden spoon. Transfer the coriander mixture to the bowl of fava beans and mix until well combined.
