Ful Mudammas Recipe (breakfast beans)
Recipe Categories: VegetarianBreakfast
Written by   

This bean dish is very healthy and full of protein and fiber because of the use of the beans as the main component. It is very flavorful with the addition of the lemon juice and garlic. Some countries like to even incorporate tahini paste into the dish as well. This dish is mainly served as a breakfast dish or brunch dish. Ingredients 1 16 oz can fava beans 1 16 oz can garbanzo beans 2 Large minced Garlic 1 tsp of salt 1/2 cup lemon juice 1/2 cup chopped tomato 1/2 cup chopped parsley 2 radish sliced 1 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil Directions In a pot, warm up the fava beans and chick peas for 10 minutes then transfer to a large bowl.

soak them overnight in water and then boil them in water but you also need to add 1 tablespoon of baking soda, just boil for 45 minutes and they will be very tender :)

Ahlan Dede! Such good memories from my trips to Middle East! I only have dried fava beans instead of the canned ones. I suppose it works too. How should they be prepared? I know they should dip into water for 8-12 hrs then be boiled. For how long? I tried boiling them for 3 hrs and they were still hard with a thick skin! Do they have to be peeled? Do you have any recipe for foul bi-zeit (3ttariqat el-lubnaniyeh of course!) which is a great meal too? Thanks a lot for all your delicious recipes!

When I was in Iraq, the Iraqi sailors made this as more of a stew, cooked with fresh, whole chickens, inside. Topped off with some radishes and scooped up with samoon, it was amazing. The only bad part was the smell, as it filled the boats, and made us very hungry for a couple hours before we could eat.
