Chef's Note
“Fava beans are not often found on menus and in my opinion are very under rated. When cooked properly they are delicious and offer a nice change from our regular veggies. There are many ways you can enjoy them I just threw this recipe together last night and served them with new carrots, minted peas and peppered prawns. In addition try adding a chopped leek to the stir fry.”

- 2 teaspoons chopped parsley (for garnish) (optional)
Directions
- Shell the fava beans and boil in lightly salted water for about 6 minutes.
- Cool the beans in cold water and remove outer skin on each bean (If you are using canned beans omit these first steps and go right to the next one).

- Pour over the beans & cover with foil.
- Bake in 350F degrees oven for 15 minutes.
- Remove foil, sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

- Do whatever appeals to your taste buds!
