One of Iraq's winter meze dishes, olive oil dried fava beans are made by cooking dried fava soaked overnight with onion and spice in olive oil until soft. Compared to the fresh version, dried fava carries a deeper, earthier flavour.
Sauté the onion and garlic cloves with the cumin in olive oil for 5 minutes.
Drain the soaked fava beans, add them in and pour in enough water to cover.
Cook covered over low heat for 40 minutes until the beans soften, adding more water if needed.
Stir in the chilli flakes, lemon juice and salt, then serve.
Don't forget to soak the fava beans the night before, or the cooking time will stretch out noticeably.
Adding the cumin at the start of cooking rather than the end lets its aroma work into the oil more thoroughly.
