We just finished eating this amazing dish! We served it with halibut cheeks braised with green garlic. OMG!! Superb! The only change in the recipe is we added red chili flakes and cooked the pancetta until extra crispy. We used shaved pecorino. We’ll post a picture later–we’re mellowing in the afterglow of the wonderful flavors that began with Billecart-Salmon Brut Rose Champagne and a “Butter Tasting”, Fresh Uni & Avocado on thinly sliced toasted Acme Spelt bread, Gravlax from Santa Rosa Fish and ended with Bandol Red Wine and Hansel Sauvignon Blanc. Margot’s “world’s best” ginger cake is coming out of the oven…mmm mmm good.

@Dawn Brister Thanks!! It's somehow good for brunch, I adore poached eggs too, but always forget to make some, they're so easy to make. I think sometimes, we tend to get into complicated recipes when simple ones are truly wonderful. Fava bean has a great flavor and texture.

@kristy Hi Kristy, thanks! sorry for late reply, on this post, I don't get any emails for comments, so I never know when people post a comment. I am glad you like the recipe!

What a beautiful recipe. I forget to bring out eggs after breakfast and I absolutely adore poached eggs. (I have to poke them, love the color of the yolk) I also just “met” fava beans I’m going to have to try this. Thank you!
