Fava-Bean Puree with Dill and Lemon

• 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 medium onions, finely chopped
• 1/2 pound split, dried fava beans (1 1/4 cups), soaked overnight and drained
• 1 medium Yukon Gold potato, peeled and cut into 1/3-inch dice
• 2 1/2 cups water
• 1 teaspoon sugar

• Salt
• 1/4 cup finely chopped dill

1. In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering.
2. Add the onions and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the drained fava beans, potato, water, sugar, 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil.
4. Cover partially and cook over moderately low heat until the fava beans and potato are broken down and the liquid is nearly absorbed, about 1 hour.
5. Transfer the mixture to a food processor and pulse until coarsely pureed.
6. Season with salt, add 2 tablespoons of the dill and stir until incorporated.
7. Transfer the puree to a serving bowl and let cool to room temperature.
