Made this for brunch today. Delicious with warm crusty french bread like you suggested.

Well I have to say thank you for putting this recipe up. I was looking for ethiopian foul so I found this a bit different, it must be the spices but it was still pretty good. I added some sugar to sweeten it up a bit and chopped some raw jalapeno and red onion and added it as a garnish at the end. I also used butter as that is what I've had in foul before. Thanks again!

This recipe is awesome — my new favorite appetizer/dip/mush, surpassing longtime favorites hummous and baba ghanooj. I omitted the oil to make it virtually fat free (I mostly practice a Dean Ornish-style diet). That made it a bit dense but the flavor was still superb. Thanks!

Very flavorful, with the perfect amount of spice. I did not include the optional potato, but I think it would have been a very nice addition. I really enjoyed this with some flatbread for breakfast. This was my first-ever recipe using fava beans, and I was pleasantly surprised. By the way, it's a good idea to let the leftovers come to room temp before serving (it's not as good cold, I don't think). Thanks for posting!

Love Middle Eastern food in general, and Foul is no exception. Made this, but with a couple of alterations. Used dried beans (cheaper & better than canned) and didn't have a spud so used a bit of sweet potato, which goes really well with this spice mix. Must have been good as I took some of what was left to the Iraqui guys who run my local fish shop, and they gave me a discount on that day's fish. Thanks for the recipe.

This dip was very easy to make and so tasty. The mix and flavour of all the spices is fantastic. My DH and I enjoy dips as a quick snack and often take them to work with some crackers or vegetable sticks. It will definitely be added to our list of favourites. Thanks for sharing it with us!
