FAVA BEAN PESTO WITH MINT AND ANCHOVY



Fava Bean Pesto with Mint and Anchovy image

This unusual pesto variation, adapted from a recipe by Colman Andrews in his book Flavors of the Riviera, cries out for grilled or roasted lamb, but you will discover many other ways to use it. In fact, it's perfectly delicious on simple grilled bread with a glass of white wine or rosé.

Yield makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
2 pounds fresh fava beans, in pods
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
3-4 anchovy fillets, rinsed with cold water
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup pecorino or Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Fill a medium saucepan with water, add a little salt, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. While the water is heating, shell the fava beans. Blanch the beans for a minute or two in the boiling water, drain, then shock them in ice water. Peel the skins and set the beans aside. Crush the garlic, mint, and basil with 1/4 teaspoon salt, using a mortar and pestle, then work in the anchovy fillets. Add about 2 tablespoons olive oil, then the fava beans, adding a third at a time. Add 2 more tablespoons olive oil, then the cheese, and finish with the oil. Season to taste. Alternatively, you can blend all the ingredients in a food processor, adding the oil last in a slow, steady stream while the motor is running.
