RECIPES: TRADITIONAL BROAD BEAN MACCO

To prepare a traditional Macco di Fave you will first need to soak the broad beans for a couple of hours.
Start by putting plenty of extra virgin olive oil and a sauté of carrots, spring onion and garlic in a pan.
Cook for a couple of minutes and add the fava beans and plenty of hot water.
Cook and add hot water until the fava beans have completely disintegrated.
Adjust salt and pepper, add chard or spinach at your discretion and continue cooking for a few more minutes.
Plate, garnish with wild fennel and accompany with a couple of slices of toasted bread!
