STIR FRIED FAVA BEANS WITH SZECHUAN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• Heat oil in wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic, Sichuan peppercorn, dried chili, and half of the chopped scallion. Cook for a minute, stirring vigorously to make sure nothing burns.
• Add fava beans and stir fry for about 2 minutes. Add salt, white pepper, sesame oil, shaoxing wine and 2 tablespoons water and stir fry until the beans are cooked through and soft.
• Stir in the remaining scallion, plate and serve.

SAUTéED FAVA BEANS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Remove the fava beans from their pods. They usually have a stringier side; simply "unzip" them open by pulling that string off. Place the beans in a bowl and discard the pods.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, add a generous amount of salt to make for very salty water, and blanch the beans for about 1 minute.
• Drain the fava beans and rinse with cold water to cool them off until they're cool enough to handle.
• Once easy to handle, squeeze each bean from the waxy whitish skin it's covered in. Remove the shells from all beans. Reserve the clean beans.
• In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter and add the fava beans. Cook, stirring frequently, until the favas are tender, or about 3 minutes.
• Add salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with the fresh herbs if using and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

PORTUGUESE FAVAS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic until golden brown. Stir in red pepper flakes, tomato sauce, hot water, parsley, salt, pepper and paprika. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Gently stir in fava beans. Remove from heat and let stand for several minutes to allow flavors to meld.

DEEP-FRIED BROAD BEANS (FAVA BEANS)

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or deep saucepan.
• Add the broad beans to the hot oil and fry until lightly coloured.
• Remove the fried beans using a slotted spoon. Drain on kitchen paper.
• Season with salt and serve.

PAN-FRIED BUTTER BEANS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir beans into hot oil until slightly golden and crispy, about 10 minutes. Stir garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper into beans; continue cooking until crispy, about 5 minutes. Drizzle vinegar over beans and toss.
