BLOOD TYPE A: FUL MEDAMES (FAVA BEAN DIP)

Ingredients: 1 medium onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 4 teaspoon olive oil 2 cans or (3 cups reconstituted) small fava beans, rinsed and drained, boiled 5 to 7 minutes, rinsed again! 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin 1/8 teaspoon cayenne or red chili pepper (omit if not allowed!) 3 Tablespoons lemon juice 1/2 cup parsley or cilantro, chopped

How to make it: Saute the onion and garlic in 2 to 3 teaspoons of olive oil in a large, non-stick skillet for about 4 minutes. Stir in the fava beans, cumin, and red pepper. Cook on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and mash the fava beans lightly, right in the skillet, until most of the beans are mashed. Scoop into a serving bowl, and mix in the lemon juice, olive oil and parsley. Garnish with chopped tomatoes, radishes, cucumbers, or any veggies you like. Serve with warm pita bread or toast.
