Helena Barlow kindly gave us this recipe for a twist on traditional Greek fava, made with our pink Flamingo Peas instead of the more usual split yellow peas or grass peas. The Flamingo peas give the dish a sweetness, a beautiful warm colour and a creamy texture. |
Traditional Greek fava, but made with Flamingo pink peas rather than grass peas (as might be the case with fava santorini). This recipe was inspired by my Greek auntie and her friend at Oliveology in London’s Borough Market. It was seriously delicious and totally cured my craving for the fava we eat in Crete. These Flamingo peas are special as they are a new variety that’s only just been grown in the UK for the first time this year - highly recommend that you try them!
Serves 2 as a dip or side dish

This fresh, aromatic dish is perfect for late spring evenings. The well-rounded combination of creamy white beans, sweet fennel, zingy lemon and bitter greens is best enjoyed with some crusty bread and a glass of white wine.

Eden's latest recipe is inspired by the Catalan method of adding dry or fried bread to dishes to thicken sauces and make them more luxurious. Paired with the briny and acid dressing, this is a great way to eat beans, not at all heavy but both savoury and bright. Best served with salad and bread – double bread! – why not?

Sikil Pak is a deliciously nutty and moorish traditional Mayan dip made from toasted or roasted pumpkin seeds and charred tomatoes. Serve alongside freshly fried totopos (tortilla chips) with a margarita if you fancy.

With regards to the roasted lemon peas. Does this use the third lemon? Am I removing some of the cooked peas before blitzing the rest? What temperature do I roast them at? For how long? When do I add the lemon?
