JACY'S MIDDLE-EASTERN FAVA BEAN STEW
This is called 'Middle-Eastern' fava bean stew and not 'Moroccan' because I have also borrowed flavors from my Lebanese roots. This stew came to me on a Saturday afternoon when we were desperately low on groceries and had no meat in the freezer. The first time my carnivorous partner tried it, he honestly thought it contained meat. I have made this many times, and he devours it with relish! To make this dish completely vegetarian/vegan, omit the anchovies. Serve with steamed basmati rice, couscous or bulgur.

Steps:
- To make harissa paste: Heat a dry skillet over high heat and add coriander, caraway and cumin seeds. Shake pan gently until spices become fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat and pour seeds into mortar and grind with pestle to a fine powder. Add garlic, salt, paprika and dried red pepper flakes, mashing and stirring until garlic is incorporated with the spices. Mixture will be dry and crumbly. Add enough of the 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil until you have a thick paste. Use fewer pepper flakes if you prefer less heat. Set aside.
- Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into a large pot and add minced onions and garlic. Cook slowly over low heat until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Push onions aside in the pot, and stir in the anchovies. Cook anchovies until they soften, mashing them with the back of a wooden spoon until they dissolve. Stir together with the onion and garlic mixture.
- Add the butternut squash, carrots, bell pepper, frozen peas and a pinch of salt. Stir and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Pour in the stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for about a minute.
- Stir in the drained fava beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, bay leaf and harissa paste (from step 1). Add brown sugar and pomegranate molasses. Bring back to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook uncovered for about 1 1/2 hours. The long, slow cooking time allows the flavors to deepen.
- Just before serving, stir in the chopped parsley. Top with the mint, if you like.

BAGHALI GHATOGH (FAVA BEAN STEW)
A popular and beloved stew from northern Iran, baghali ghatogh is an ambassador of early spring produce. Earthy, bright-green fava beans, fragrant dill and an assertive amount of garlic are combined with eggs for a comforting meal. Although shelling and peeling fresh favas is a rite of passage (see Tip), it's a time-consuming task, given the amount needed here (but if you have the time, go for it!). Frozen fava beans are a worthy substitute, but if they aren't available, you can use canned butter beans or frozen lima beans. Just enough eggs are used to give the stew some heft, but they shouldn't overwhelm the vibrant flavors of this verdant stew. The eggs can be incorporated two ways: cracked in and poached, or stirred in to break apart. Baghali ghatogh is typically served over rice with a side of smoked fish and pickled garlic, or with bread.

Steps:
- Add the oil and garlic to a medium pot, then set it over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic, stirring often, until fragrant and cooked, taking care not to burn it, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the turmeric, stir and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the beans, dill, 1½ teaspoons salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Stir gently so the beans don't break, and cook for about 3 minutes, just so the flavors meld and no longer taste raw.
- Increase the heat to medium-high, add enough water to cover the beans, about 2 cups (or more as needed, if you're using cannellini beans, which absorb more liquid), and bring to a gentle boil. Partially cover with the lid barely ajar, reduce the heat to medium-low, and gently simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender, but still maintain their shape (no mushy beans please), and the flavors have come to life, about 12 minutes.
- Taste the beans and liquid for salt and pepper, and adjust as needed. The stew should be juicy enough to serve over rice, but if it seems too liquidy, remove the lid and cook a little longer to reduce it, keeping in mind that the eggs will also thicken it up. Add a little more water if the stew is too thick.
- Increase the heat to medium and add the eggs one at a time. If poaching whole eggs, use 4 eggs and make individual wells in the stew before adding each egg. Cook, uncovered, until the whites set and the yolk is cooked to desired consistency, 3 to 5 minutes. (Alternately, you can stir the eggs in: Add 3 eggs, then run a spoon through each egg to break them apart and cook, slightly covered, until the eggs set, about 3 to 5 minutes.) Taste, add more water if the stew is too thick, adjust seasoning and serve.
STEWED FAVA BEANS A FAMILY RECIPE
This is one of my favortie dishes and it goes great with rice or pasta. You can use canned favas (broad beans) but fresh is really were it's at if you can get them in season. It's a bit more work as you have to peel them but worth the effort.

FAVA BEAN STEW WITH BULGUR
I usually go through the tedious process of shelling and skinning fava beans to make this robust stew. But if fava beans aren't available in local markets, use frozen skinned favas instead.

Steps:
- In a large, lidded skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add the garlic, half the parsley, half the cilantro and salt to taste. Continue to cook for another minute or two, stirring. Add the tomatoes, and cook, stirring often, for 10 to 15 minutes until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant.
- Add the fava beans, tomato paste, cinnamon, paprika, cayenne and 2 cups water, or enough to just cover the vegetables, and bring to a simmer. Simmer 30 minutes or until the favas are tender and the stew very fragrant. Stir in the remaining parsley and cilantro, grind in some pepper and taste and adjust salt.
- While the stew is simmering, reconstitute the bulgur. Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the bulgur and salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from the heat and uncover. Place a clean dish towel over the pan, then replace the lid. Allow to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes. Alternatively, place the bulgur in a medium bowl with salt to taste, and cover with 2 cups hot or boiling water. Allow to sit for 20 to 25 minutes until most of the water is absorbed. Drain through a strainer, and squeeze out the water.
- Spoon bulgur into wide soup bowls, and top with the fava bean stew. Drizzle on some olive oil, and serve.
