1
Start off by shelling the pods and collecting the beans in a bowl. Put aside some of the beans to use as garnish. In a mortar and pestle, smash up the rest of the fava beans with a few spoonfuls of extra virgin olive oil and the lemon juice. Add the grated pecorino cheese and salt and pepper to taste.
2
Meanwhile grill the slices of ciabatta bread and (if you are using the garlic), when they are still hot, rub one side of the bread once with the clove of garlic. If you're a garlic lover, you can rub more but try not to go overboard with the raw garlic as it tends to overpower!
3
Top each slice with a spoonful or two of the fava bean paste and decorate with some of the whole fava beans that you put aside at the beginning and a few leaves of your favourite fresh herbs. Tastes like Spring.
