Fooll Mudammes (Fava Bean Egyptian Breakfast)(فول مدمس) Recipe #18236
Traditional breakfast in the middle east. This is my mom's recipe, my (and my husband's) favorite. You can make it at night and heat the next morning, keeps well in the fridge. I do not use oil to cook the onions, to lower the fat, and it tastes just as good!
