*I used sweetness candy onions
**I purchase mine yesteryear the pound at my local Italian shop but they should last available at whatever olive bar. They bring loads of ruddy pepper flakes in addition to hence they are pretty spicy!

My thoughts:
I'd never encountered fresh fava beans until but late when they made an appearance inwards my weekly reach box. I was surprised at how thick in addition to virtually velvety the pods were. Who knew? The yield wasn't huge (possible because I waited a piece to musical rhythm out them) but it was plenty to brand this vaguely Greek, Mediterranean-eque salad. When y'all are making it, it looks similar y'all are going to bring 10x the eggplant equally everything else but remember, it cooks downwardly quite a chip in addition to the in conclusion fava to eggplant ratio is quite good. I too used around spicy olives I had leftover from my pan-European snackies dinner that turned out to last an inspired choice, they flavored the whole dish alongside virtually no seek out on my part. I similar spicy olives but they tin last a chip much on their own, however, they are perfect inwards salads similar this what assistance occur them from overpowering everything. And the feta? Well, who doesn't similar cheese? I cutting mine upward from a big brick but experience costless to operate pre-cubed. I mean value the salad is the absolute best the outset twenty-four hours but it is soundless pretty skillful 2-3 days afterwards if y'all bring leftovers. Just brand certain to refrigerate them inwards a nonreactive container.
