 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1      pound         dried habas (yellow fava beans)
  1      medium        onion -- diced
  2                    plum tomatoes -- diced
    1/4  cup           cilantro -- chopped
                       salt -- to taste

Cook habas according to your favorite method for dry beans.  When they
are done, you can add the tomatoes and onions and salt and simmer until
onions are softened, then add cilantro.

Or you can saute tomatoes and onions in a little oil until liquid is
reduced, then add habas and re-fry, mashing some of the beans with the
back of a spoon until most liquid is absorbed.  Then stir in cilantro.
