Well, this recipe is a perfect example of The Challenge making me cook dishes I would just have passed over. The idea of hairy-lined, tough, broad bean pods, stewed for 15 minutes and then eaten with yoghurt wasn't at all inspiring. Well, what a revelation! They were so good, we have decided they have to be an annual treat! You absolutely HAVE to have small broad bean pods - no bigger than your index finger, as Nigel says. Fortunately, we were able to pick them from Binsey's Medley Manor PYO to our specifications. They were uber-beany, the dill lifted the flavour at the end, and a spoonful of sharp Greek yoghurt (Total....of course!) complemented them perfectly. Do try this if you can get the right beans - you won't regret it!
