Ful Kaneeco (fava beans in coconut)

Instructions

1. The day before, soak the beans in cold water, then drain them before cooking.
2. Sauté the sliced onions in hot oil for 8 minutes, until golden.
3. Add the chopped garlic, cumin and grated tomato, then let it reduce for 3 minutes with the tomato paste.
4. Add the drained beans and pour in the water, then bring to a boil and skim off the foam.
5. Cover and simmer gently for 1 hour, until the beans start to break down.
6. Stir in the coconut milk and continue cooking over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring so it doesn't catch on the bottom.
7. Adjust the seasoning and serve hot with flatbread.
