Fava beans, or broad beans, are great fried, steamed or even raw. This easy vegan fava beans recipe is the perfect easy tapa. Take some frozen tender baby fava beans (also known as baby broad beans) and cook them up with olive oil, garlic, onions, smoked paprika, and white wine to bring you the tastiest vegetarian version of habas con jamón. Spanish fava beans are traditionally served at room temperature in bars here in Spain and usually have ham added for extra flavour, but you won’t find this ham-free vegetarian version lacking in flavour.
