been using frozen, defrost in water and then shell them.
Though not used to using frozen veg apart from peas so often forget they are there but they are a good addition to many dishes.
had some last night, left over cooked chorizo from 2 nights ago diced and made a kind of risotto but with orzo. roasted pepper, cherry tomato, courgette, shallots in the oven and sautéed chopped shallot/celery/chorizo/anchovy/fava beans/garlic/tsp tagine paste and then chicken stock and the orzo. reduced it a bit and then added to the veg in the oven to finish cooking the orzo and reduce down.
was pretty good for leftovers and using up stuff in the fridge, I hate binning food so tend to use everything if I can.
Just seen this, how would they suit adding to a curry?
@Mr_Smyth now that mix with broccoli in a creamy pasta sounds lovely.
Noted that you can find tinned fava beans would they make an acceptable substitute?
