Fava Beans [Palestinian Blend] cooked in Adeni red tomato base -فول مكشاً
September 21, 2012 by lamyaalmas
Ingredients:
-
20 oz. can of Fava Beans –Palestinian blend [it has chickpeas, tahini, and lemon in addition to the fava beans]
-
2 tomatoes diced
-
1 jalapeno finely chopped
-
2 tblsp of cilantro finely chopped
-
1 medium onion finely chopped
-
2 cloves garlic minced
-
3 tbsl of olive oil
-
1 tsp of ghee (I used Yemeni homemade Yaf3ee Ghee. The Middle Eastern stores sell ghee as well, and are just as good)
-
2 tblsp of tomato paste
-
salt to taste
For the base: sautee the onions in the oil and add the garlic and jalapenos. When the onions are golden brown add the tomatoes and some salt and wait for them to soften. Once they soften add the tomato paste and half a cup of water. Let the sauce thicken. Crush the contents of the can [Coarsely] with a fork–or use a clean set of hands–and add to the pan.
Let it simmer for about 4 minutes. Pour the olive oil on top and sprinkle the cilantro for garnish and serve with bread. It makes for a great dip.

This is exactly how I make it but with Fava beans only (not the blend). Delicious and very easy to make….
Love it!
I think it is the Adeni Kushna that is so amazing Muna that whatever you add to it, it works great Maa Sha Allah. It’s simple, but delish.

VERY NICE RECIPE… INSHA ALLAH I WILL TRY TODAY…
Let me know how it turns out.
Is the yafai butter, the same as the brown samn? Thanks sister Lamya for sharing your wonderful Yemeni recipes.
Each place has a different aromatic ghee/clarified butter. It mostly based on preference. Try it ands if it works for you, go ahead.
