Hi Everyone, Here is another simple fava recipe for those of you who love favas like I do. This one is different from the last one as it has brown rice mixed into it as well as dressing. Here in Portugal we have been having gorgeous summer weather (even tho it’s still spring). So many things in the garden are just going crazy! I love to work in my garden and I especially love being able to eat from the garden. As we are meant to! So here is the recipe.
Dressing
3 T toasted sesame oil
2 T brown rice vinegar
2 T tamari or shoyu
2 cloves garlic
1/2 t grated ginger
1/2 t honey
Place this dressing a medium size bowl and mix in all the ingredients below.
1/2 kg favas peeled, blanched for 2 minutes and shelled
2 cups cooked brown rice
1/3 cucumber sliced and cut into quarters
1/2 red pepper cut into small pieces
2 T coriander chopped for garnish
Serve cold and enjoy on a warm spring or summer day for lunch or dinner, as a side dish or a main.
Red peppers are very high in vitamin C, B6, K1 and potassium, they also contains vitamin A, vitamin E and folate. They are so delicious and full of vitamins and minerals.
