Fava Bean Hummous with Cumin

Bring a small pot of water to boil. Immerse the beans into the boiling water for 1 minute, drain, and refresh in a bowl of cool water.

Pinch the skin off each bean.

Put the skinned fava beans a food processor and add the garlic, cumin, oil and 1/4 tsp salt. Pulse until the beans are roughly puréed.

Taste for salt.

Add the lemon juice, starting with 1 teaspoon and working up from there. Scrape the purée into a bowl.

Just before serving, drizzle oil over the surface and add a sprinkle of toasted cumin seeds.
