Fava bean and sour cherry kuku

Once in a while, I’m in the mood to try a new recipe that takes over 2 hours, all sorts of exotic ingredients, and a bunch of pots and pans. This is Fava Bean Kuku from the #jerusalemcookbook, an Iranian Jewish frittata of fava beans, sour cherries(*), fresh dill, fresh mint, and saffron. A wonderful medley of unfamiliar delicious flavors. Totally worth it. (*)Meant to use barberries, a tiny tart Iranian item, but after striking out at three markets, including the famous SuperKing, I opted for Morello cherries, which the recipe offered as a substitute.
