1kg broad beans, podded to have 400g beans
60ml (1/4 cup) extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 onion, finely chopped

Black pepper
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped

6. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
7. Stir the beans and cook for a minute to warm through, tossing occasionally.
8. Remove from heat. Season with a grind of pepper. Gently toss through the herbs, feta and lemon zest.
