Zubereitung

Rinse the dried fava beans, cover them with plenty of water, and soak overnight.
Drain the beans, place them in a pot with 1.5 L of fresh water, and simmer gently until very soft, about 1.5 to 2 hours, adding water if needed.
Mash some of the beans in the pot, leaving the rest whole, and stir in the salt.
Crush the garlic and mix it with the cumin, lemon juice, and chili flakes.
Stir the garlic mixture into the hot beans and simmer for a few minutes.
Spoon into bowls, drizzle with olive oil, and scatter with chopped parsley.
Serve hot with flatbread.
