Recipe - Fava Beans And Peas

4 cup Fava beans; shelled
1 cup Linguica and bacon; cut or sliced up
One half Onion; minced
2 Cloves garlic; crushed
Salt to taste
One half teaspoon Paprika
1 tablespoon Sugar
Hot chili pepper to taste
1 Sprig mint; chopped

Here are some Fava bean receipes I found in "Foods of the Azores Islands":

Shell beans. In a saucepan, fry linguica and bacon, add onion, garlic,
pepper and mint, saute, then add fava beans. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Add hot water slowly, just enough to cover beans, add paprika, sugar and
salt. Cover and simmer until bans are tender. Beans turn brown when done.
If you like poached eggs in with the beans, add eggs when beans are almost
done. Serve over toast. Serves 3 to 4.
