@spicymoustache: There’s no need to throw away any part of your fava beans including the pods to make falafel and the beans to make a super crispy snack! Cut the plants at the base and compost leaves and stalks. I usually leave a few pods to dry out on the plant to save some seeds for the next season. FALAFEL PODS: 🫛 2 x cups pre soaked Chickpeas 15/20 x Fava pods 3 x Garlic cloves 1 x Onion 1 x tbsp Paprika 2 x pinches Salt 2 x pinches Black pepper Parsley Olive oil Optional :cumin,fennel,chilli etc STEP BY STEP: - Wash the pods and cut off the ends - For a better texture, use pods that are fresh and tender and make sure to get rid of the strings or if you’re using pods that are a bit harder boil them for 1 minute - Blend until smooth (you may need to use a spoon to manually stir the mix in the blender as its quite a dry mixture) - Roll some balls and deep fry until golden CRISPY FAVA BEANS: 🫘 Fava beans Olive oil Spices -bake at 180 C* for 30 min keep an eye on it and mix a couple of times to make both sides nice and crispy #fyp #foryoupage #contentcreator #beans #beansrecipe #zerowaste #zerowasteliving #zerowasterecipe #reuse #cooking #cookingathome #homecooking #Recipe #plantbased #tiktokfood #asmrfood #shorts
