Place the soaked fava beans in a large pot, cover with fresh water, and simmer until tender, which takes about 60 minutes.
In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the finely chopped onion and minced garlic until soft and fragrant.
Drain the cooked fava beans and add them to the frying pan with the aromatics, seasoning generously with salt and pepper.
Stir gently to combine and serve the dish hot, drizzled with a little extra olive oil if desired.
