Byessar Moroccan Broad Bean Dip

did you know that for the ancient egyptians, beans were seen as a symbol of reincarnation and that they represented the rebirth of spring each year? i found this fabulous recipe for a moroccan broad bean dip in the first edition - september 2005 - of the new australian magazine 'notebook: ideas for living'. it was part of an article on peas and beans. the 'cooking time' specified below does not include the 20 minutes cooling time in the refrigerator, necessary for allowing the flavours to blend. when i made this, i used frozen broad beans, thawed; they were baby beans so they didn't need peeling; and i used cumin because i haven't yet tracked down any ras el hanout. i also used 4 cloves of garlic - which is what i've included here in the ingredients; the original recipe had 1 clove of garlic.
