Description

Bring the street flavors of Cairo straight to your dining table with California Garden Fava Beans Egyptian Recipe (Fèves Recette Égyptienne). Sourced and prepared by California Garden—the globally recognized brand in Middle Eastern canned foods—this authentic recipe takes all the effort out of preparing traditional foul mudammas. The fava beans are cooked to a soft, mashable texture and gently infused with classic aromatics, most notably warm ground cumin and mild savory spices. Designed to be heated and enjoyed in minutes, it serves as a nutritious, protein-rich foundation for everyday meals and family breakfasts.
