Fava beans, known in some places as broad beans, is a versatile type of bean that goes well with almost any spice and is just as good grilled as it is cooked in the oven. These Fava Beans With Chilli feature fava beans that are mixed in with chilis to add a slightly spicy flavour. This new addition improves the taste of the beans by seasoning them to make them easier to mix into other foods.
