With the arrival of Autumn, one wants a warm, strong and comforting meal. This recipe is with Board beans, a very healthy leguminous that satisfies hunger for longer hours.
Broad beans or Fava Beans are leguminous from Peru that are born within a pod.
They can be used fresh at their season or bought frozen.Rich in starch and fibre, they give the necessary energy to our body. Broad beans are a high source of iron (treating anaemia), vitamin B complex and magnesium.
They are also rich in potassium, salt that is responsible for controlling blood pressure and still prevent heart problems and relieve stress and daily irritation.
In the preparation of this dish, I used a clay pot that I strongly recommend as it makes any dish much more tasty.

In a large pot, add the olive oil and fry the whole bacon and chorizos. Then, add the 3 garlic cloves and chopped onions, and let it brown. Add the beans and season with salt to taste.
