Preparation 150 minutes preparation + 5 minutes cooking

Soak dried peeled fava beans overnight. Cook in boiling salted water with onion, sliced thick, and wild fennel for at least 2 - 3 hours, until the fava beans are reduced to a pulp.

Strain through a sieve and turn out the thick mixture onto a greased marble or steel surface. Roll out evenly with a pin to 1-inch-thick and allow to cool.

Cut into strips (panelle) and fry in hot oil (check oil temperature with a piece of dough), turning until evenly golden. Serve hot. Sprinkle with hot red pepper (optional).
