Crunchy Fava Bean Salad With Frisee Peppers And Pecorino Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of lightly salted water to a boil and add the beans. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender but not mushy. Refresh the beans in ice water. Drain and peel the beans. You will have about 2 cups.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium skillet. Over high heat, cook the celery and leeks for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally; the vegetables should retain some crispness. Add the yellow pepper and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Add the fava beans, 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• To make the vinaigrette, place the lemon juice, lemon zest, remaining salt, fresh black pepper, garlic and remaining olive oil in a jar. Close the lid tightly and shake vigorously to combine.
• To assemble the salad, pour the vinaigrette into a large bowl. Add the cooked vegetables, frisee and pecorino and toss lightly to coat evenly. Adjust the seasoning if necessary and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over medium heat. Set a bowl of salted ice water on the counter. Blanch the fava beans in the boiling water and plunge immediately into the salted ice water. Remove the tough outer casing from the fava bean.
• Combine the fava beans in a large bowl with the onions, escarole, and the pecorino (reserve a couple shavings for garnish). Add some red wine vinegar, some olive oil and salt, to taste. Toss to coat the salad with the dressing.
