Ingredients
2 (19 ounce) cans fava beans (use fresh if you have them, take off the pods and boil them until tender, cool and then slip off the)
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 large onions, chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons hot red pepper flakes
1/4 cup tomato sauce
3/4 cup hot water
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
salt and pepper
2 tablepoons Hungarian paprika

Directions
Heat oil in a large saucepan& over medium heat saute the onions& garlic until golden.

Stir in remaining ingredients except the beans.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes (add a bit more water if it reduces too much- the sauce should have some liquid to it).

Gently stir in the fava beans and let stand for a few minutes so the beans absorb some of the flavor from the sauce.
