Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 pounds fava beans (in their pods)
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Remove the pods from the fava beans. If you like, peel their skins.
  • Put beans in top of a steamer and sprinkle them with thyme. Cook them until they are tender (this depends on their size and whether they are peeled, but it shouldn't take longer than 15 minutes).
  • Put the beans in a warm serving bowl, add the butter, salt and pepper and toss them. Serve immediately.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more seasoning.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my beans turned out mushy. I think I may have overcooked them.
