A CATALAN BROAD BEAN RECIPE 
2 1/3 lb. broad beans

3 chorizos (spiced sausage)
1/3 c. oil
1 onion
1 glass strong eau-de-vie
2 glasses white wine
Seasoning: garlic, salt, pepper, mint

Cook the shelled beans in salted water. When they are half done, drain off some of the water leaving enough for the beans to be covered.

A couple of garlic cloves, chopped onion, pepper and mint are mixed into the oil and fried lightly. Add the cup of strong liquor and put everything in with the beans. Then the finely sliced bacon and chorizo, are added and everything is cooked until it is done.
