Steps:
- 1. Shell fava beans discarding pods. Boil a large pot of water and parboil the favas for 1 minute. Drain a place in ice water till cooled. Pop the favas out of their skins discarding skins. 2. Warm 1/2 cup olive oil in a sautee pan. add beans salt and pepper. Add garlic and herb sprigs and a splash of water. Cook stirring frequently 30 minutes or until beans are soft. If mixture begins to dry out add more water. 3. When beans are soft but still pale green,remove and discard herbs and mash with a potato masher or puree in a food processor. Taste for seasoning and add a few drops of lemon juice as well as additional oil. The oil is an important part of the flavor so be liberal. Serve at room temperature with grilled baguette slices.
