Directions
Minted Broad / Fava Bean Puree, Since I have been back in NZ I have had the chance to go through my old Cuisine magazines There are some fantastic recipes in them, this is based on one by Julie Biuso Great with bread and cheeses/meats , Yes, it’s delicious We had broad beans from the garden and the boiling and shucking is really no big deal Just be conservative when you boil them- they should be nice and firm I would say 6 minutes in their shells is enough Then cool them and pop them out of their skins
We added extra fresh mint and lemon to make it zingy Yummy and makes a nice change from the everyday dip!
