蚕豆在查莫拉酱中炖煮,下足蒜和孜然,配面饼蘸着吃。是摩洛哥早餐桌上最常见的一道,便宜管饱。

蒜香蚕豆是摩洛哥早餐桌上最常见的一道菜,蚕豆在查莫拉酱中炖煮,下足蒜和孜然。蚕豆是北非最古老的栽培作物之一,在摩洛哥各种形态都吃:干豆做比萨拉汤,鲜豆做塔吉,这道菜用的是小粒干蚕豆,泡发后炖煮。查莫拉酱的蒜和孜然是主导风味。配面饼蘸着吃,是摩洛哥工人阶级的早餐。这道菜与已有的比萨拉汤关系密切,但比萨拉是打成泥的汤,这道是整粒豆的炖菜。

蚕豆绵软入味,蒜香浓重,孜然暖融。配面饼蘸着吃,是最实惠的早餐。

干蚕豆须泡发至少六小时,否则煮不烂。泡发后的小粒蚕豆在查莫拉酱中炖三十分钟即软透。查莫拉酱的蒜在热油中爆香后释出大蒜素,与蚕豆的淀粉质地相配。孜然的枯茗醛是整个北非豆类菜的灵魂。

How it's made

5 steps · 15 min

  1. 1
    10 min

    Soak 500g small fava beans overnight; drain.

    Watch out

    Soak the fava beans a full overnight — under-soaked beans never cook soft, no matter how long you braise them.

  2. 2
    5 min

    Heat 3 tbsp olive oil; add 6 garlic, 1 tbsp cumin, 1 tsp paprika; cook 2 min.

  3. 3
    10 min

    Add beans, 1 diced preserved lemon, water to cover; simmer 30 min.

    Watch out

    Simmer thirty minutes until the beans are meltingly soft — you want them tender enough to mash, so keep the water gently bubbling and topped up.

  4. 4
    3 min

    Mash slightly; adjust seasoning.

  5. 5
    2 min

    Serve with bread and olive oil.
