Broad beans with lemon and coriander
Ingredients
- 60ml olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely diced (190g)
- 5 garlic cloves, crushed
- 50g coriander, chopped
- 600g broad beans, fresh or frozen and defrosted
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- ¼ tsp ground allspice
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- salt and black pepper
Procedure
- Pour the oil into a large sauté pan and cook the onions on a medium heat for 8 minutes, until translucent, stirring occasionally.
- Add the garlic and 40g of the coriander and sauté for another minute.
- Add the broad beans, paprika, allspice, ½ teaspoon of salt, plenty of black pepper and 200ml of water and stir well.
- Cover the pan and simmer gently for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are very soft. A lot of the water will have evaporated but the mixture should be wet, with the beans still immersed in liquid.
- Remove from the heat, take off the lid and leave to cool. Add the lemon juice, stir through the remaining coriander and serve
