Picante de habas

Picante de habas is a traditional stew originating from Peru, and it's especially popular in the Andean regions. It's usually made with a combination of fava (broad) beans, potatoes, milk, onions, vegetable stock, garlic, cumin, hot peppers, huacatay, parsley, salt, and pepper. The onions and garlic are sautéed in oil and mixed with cumin, hot peppers, salt, and pepper. The mixture is cooked until fragrant, covered with vegetable stock, and the potatoes, fava beans, and huacatay are added to the pot. Milk and parsley are added near the end of cooking, when the potatoes and beans are soft. The stew is typically served in large shallow bowls.
