Step 1
In a food processor, combine the 2 cups fava beans, 1 cup parsley, 1 cup cilantro, 1 chopped onion, and 2 garlic cloves. Pulse until coarsely ground, about 30 seconds.
Step 2
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp ground cumin (if you have it). Mix until well combined.
Step 3
Shape the mixture into 8 small patties, about 2 inches wide. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs.
Step 4
Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the patties in batches, without crowding, until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side.
Step 5
Drain on paper towels and serve hot with tahini sauce or in pita bread.
