Instructions to make Fava Beans, Avocado and Tomatoes in Basil Sauce:
  1. ■ Make the basil pesto. Put the basil and garlic in a food processor and process until combined. Add the ★ ingredients and process until it becomes a smooth sauce.
  2. Cook the fava beans by boiling in a plenty of salted water, or by microwaving them. * I'll explain how to microwave them in Steps 3-5.
  3. Using your hands, make a small opening in middle of the seam of each of the fava beans. *Be sure to do this, or the beans inside will explode in the microwave.
  4. Line up the fava beans in a circle on the edge of the microwave turntable. (See photo.)
  5. Microwave for 2 minutes 30 seconds at 600 W. * Adjust the cooking time according to your microwave and the size of the beans.
  6. Cut the avocado and tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and put them in a bowl with the cooked fava beans.
  7. You can peel the thin skins on the fava beans, or leave them on, according to your preference. * This time I just peeled the bigger, harder beans.
  8. Add salt, pepper and lemon juice to the bowl in Step 6 and lightly mix. Add 2-3 teaspoons of the ■ basil pesto made in Step 1, and it's done.
  9. ◆ Add a bit of tabasco or mayonnaise, if you like. Yellow cherry tomatoes make it even more colorful. ◆
  10. ◆ I recommend using good quality salt for the ■ basil pesto. Put the leftovers in a ziplock freezer bag and store in the freezer ◆

Broad beans are mashed with mint, Parmesan, garlic and plenty of olive oil to create a wonderful dip or spread. Basil: Fresh basil is a must, don't even think of using dried basil, it makes absolutely no sense in this recipe. Salt: I used good quality sea salt flakes, like Maldon, to sprinkle on top of the tomato, avocado and mozzarella salad. Fancy salt flakes are not completely mandatory, but they work really well here, use them if you happen to have. Based upon that recipe, this is a simpler variation to cook the fava beans in the microwave, and add Parmigiano Reggiano, Krazy Salt, and olive oil.
