Habas con Jamon

Habas con Jamon

Thanks to Sue Bowen, one of our Friends & Neighbours for this Spanish recipe

Ingredients

• 300g of podded broad beans
• 2 shallots, finely chopped
• 150g jamon serrano, cut into lardons or cooked bacon lardons
• 1 or 2 cloves garlic, finely diced
• olive oil
• 1/2 pint chicken stock
• salt, only if necessary

Method

1. Fry the beans, onions, ham and garlic lightly in some olive oil
2. Add some hot chicken stock and allow to simmer, do not allow to dry out, add a little more stock as necessary
3. Taste and adjust for salt, probably not necessary due to ham and stock being salty
