Peel the fava beans before adding them to the frying pan. This makes for a smoother dish. Add the lemon juice and salt. Mix together and cover for a minute or two.

If you have a nice, ripe tomato, dice it small and add it to the frying pan. It gives a real nice flavor to the dish. If its not ripe, leave the tomato out.

Cover and let simmer for 2-3 minutes, mixing occasionaly. Turn off the fire, and take a fork and smash all the ingredients together. You dont want to make it a smooth paste like hummous, but rather one with little "chunks" in it.
