| It's not strictly hummus - which literally means chickpeas - but this quick, easy and delicious ful nabed dip makes a great alternative. Made with Split Fava Beans with no need to soak, it can be cooked from scratch in 30 to 40 minutes. Best served warm! |
Split dried fava beans make a delicious alternative to chickpeas as the basis for a hummus-like dip, with the great advantage that they don’t need soaking and cook down to a creamy consistency without the need for a food processor. This fava bean hummus can be cooked from scratch in just 30 minutes.
Hodmedod’s fava beans are all grown on British farms, making this hummus lower in food miles too. For an even more British hummus try substituting cold-pressed rapeseed oil for the olive oil and hazelnut paste for tahini.

A British-grown take on Sicilian street food. These crisp, golden "Pea’nelle" fritters made from yellow split pea flour are served alongside delicate, batter-fried pumpkin, finished with a sweet and spicy honey-chilli glaze.
This dish allows the leeks and peas to cook and soften together slowly, lending their flavours to each other. Cooking the peas slowly helps release their starch, giving the dish an overall creamier consistency. The salsa verde adds a great savoury tang. Author Eden Owen-Jones is an avid listener of the Home Cooking podcast with Samin Nosrat and Hrishikesh Hirway and there is only so many times she could hear Samin talk about this salsa without trying to make a version for herself – we think it works really nicely here.
