   A popular Egyptian soup, Ful Nabed is simple and
   nutritious.
   
   In a large soup pot saute the onions and garlic in the
   olive oil until the onions are translucent.  Add the
   cumin, paprika, cayenne, bay leaves, and carrots and
   cook on medium heat for 5 minutes.  Stir in the
   chopped tomatoes and vegetable stock and simmer until
   the carrots are tender, about 15 minutes.  Finally,
   add the cooked fava beans and the parsley and lemon
   juice.  Add salt and pepper to taste.
   
   Ful Nabed can be served with Pita Bread and garnished
   with fresh mint leaves.
