THE WIEW FROM GRANADA CLUB DE GOLF, LAS GABIAS. |
In the winter time you have the wiew of the snow in the Sierra Nevada mountains from all of them,lots of sunny days , but the temperature in the winter in Granada always is a bit lower than by the cost, Granada is on the hight of 700 meters , then in summertime you can expect it to be quite hot. April, May and June spring and early summer is a beautiful time to come, and please don't come 1 day to see the Alhambra, witch is the most impressing and well- known monument,stay with us, walk in the old town, eat some tapas , do some skiing, golfing, hiking , horse-riding, water-sports, see some other museums and monuments, go for a flamenco night.
All 3 Golf Clubs has a Pro-Shop, a Golf School, and proper restaurant where you can have a nice breakfast, some snack, as the tapas Granada is so famous of, lunch, or even dinner, refreshments and drinks. The terraces are really wonderful , with wiews over the golf course and the countryside around.

MYSELF AT GRANADA CLUB DE GOLF |
I am just a beginner, but my husband plays golf since 1980, I was always working in my beloved decoration store , or traveling to trade fairs, or with customers, will come back to this some other time, now I go to Golf School, and we are a nice group who learn together, play together, and sometimes have a refreshment together, and always laugh together, which is the most important.
On our way home there was a young lady with a small wan on the side of the country-road, selling fava beans , asparagus and spring onion, so we bought a lot of all 3..
|
FRESH SPRING ONION |
The fava beans we cooked for lunch, i'm going to tell you how, where delisious, so soft and with that little bittersweet taste in the end, it's that Granada has the finest fava beans, the season is very short, so we buy a lot, shell them and freeze for the rest of the year, and the best ones, we find bypeople who has a small land and grow, harvest and sell the beans by the roads themselves.
|
LOTS OF SHELL, YOU MUST BUY 1 1/2 KG FAVA BEANS PR. PERSON |
We took the whole lot out in the sun, a little drink and some music, and you will finish in time for making a real splendid lunch,
HABAS FRITAS CON JAMON
|
HAVE A PIECE OF BREAD ASIDE AND A LITTLE GLASS OF RIBERA DEL DUERO RED WINE.
|
2 persons
3 kg habas (fava beans)
2 cebolletas (spring onions)
200 gr. jamon serrano (serrano ham)
2 dl virgen extra olive oil
1 ts sal (salt, I dont use much salt depends on how salty the serrano ham is)
2 or 3 dientes de ajo (garlic cloves)
2 huevos (eggs)
|
THIS IS ALL YOU NEED. |
|
SHOP IT LIKE THIS. |
|
THEN IN THE POT LIKE THIS. |
Let cook in the olive oil for about 10 min, try for the salt taste, and serve with a fried egg on each plate, together with some nice white bread. I use to take away the olive oil , but you can save it to cook an other meal of favas, but use it again within a week or so.
