Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Chef's Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups dried lupini beans
  • 1 lemon Juiced
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 20 grams parsley Chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Soak lupini beans in water for a few hours.
  • Add to boiling salted water, and cook until they’re soft enough to eat. This should take around 30 minutes but it depends on the variety of the lupini beans you’re using.
  • Rinse the beans, then add lemon juice, ground cumin, and salt. Give it a good mix so cumin and salt are well distributed.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve!

Notes

  • Tip: Lupini beans used in this recipe are “sweet” lupini beans that don’t require soaking for days. If you’re using a bitter variety, then soak them for days while changing the water twice a day.
  • Tip: If you are allergic to peanuts, double-check that you’re not allergic to lupini beans as well before eating them.
  • Tip: The beans are eaten cold and stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
