Fava Beans with Greens & Mustard Oil

Method

1. For a quick soak, place the fava beans in a heatproof bowl and cover with freshly boiled water for 1-1.5 hours.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat, add the onion and cook for 8-10 minutes until completely soft and lightly golden.
3. Add the garlic and oregano and cook for 1 more minute before adding the marsala; continue to cook until reduced by half.
4. Drain the fava beans then add with the vegetable stock, bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
5. Stir through the greens for the final 5 minutes of cook time. Season with a generous amount of salt and pepper.
6. When the beans are finished, heat the 3 tbsp olive oil in a small frying pan. When hot, add the mustard and fennel seeds; when they begin to pop, immediately pour over the beans.
7. Serve in bowls with crusty bread.
