  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   8      ounces        Dried fava beans -- soaked
   1      each          Onion -- quartered
   1 1/4  teaspoons     Salt
   2      teaspoons     Lemon juice
   2      tablespoons   Olive oil
   1 1/2  tablespoons   Parsley
     1/2  teaspoon      Salt
                        Pepper
   1      each          Garlic clove -- minced

Drain the beans & slip them out of their skins.  Set the skinned beans in a pot 
with the onion & just enough water to cover. Turn the heat to medium, bring to a boil,
 add salt & reduce to a simmer. Cover & cook until the water has almost evaporated & 
the beans are tender & pulpy, 20 to 25 minutes.

 Drain the beans.  Mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, salt & pepper. 
 Toss with the garlic & the cooked beans.

 Serve as part of an antipasto plate or as we would serve a potato salad.
