Prepare the fava beans: If using canned fava beans, drain them thoroughly in a colander and rinse under cold water to remove excess brine. If they are whole, you can gently press them to slightly break them up, or leave them whole for a chunkier texture. If using pre-cooked dried fava beans, ensure they are cooled.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 2
Mince the garlic: Peel the garlic cloves and mince them very finely. For a milder garlic flavor, you can grate them or mash them into a paste with the salt using the side of your knife or a mortar and pestle. This helps to distribute the garlic evenly and mellow its sharpness.
⏱️ 4 minutes - 3
Combine the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 4
Assemble the dish: In a medium serving bowl, add the prepared fava beans. Pour the dressing over the beans. Gently toss everything together until the beans are evenly coated with the dressing. Ensure all ingredients are well distributed.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Serve: Ful bi Zeit is best served chilled or at room temperature. Garnish with a drizzle of extra olive oil or a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately with crusty bread, pita bread, or as part of a mezze platter.
