Broad beans with tomatoes
Background
This dish is one of the classic Spanish tapas. It’s best to make it with ripe tomatoes - if you don’t have any, add a spoonful of unrefined sugar to the cooking. Serve these broad beans with tomatoes on a piece of toast or bruschetta! Alternatively, serve it as a side dish with grilled meat or fish.
