I’ve been looking into the origin of the Chicken Kiev and have been surprised to learn that it has very long and distinguished history. Chicken Kiev is a recipe from the Russian Empire, with a nod to French Haute Cuisine, right back to the 18th Century spreading into Europe via the restaurant at the Continental Hotel in Kiev which was frequented by European travellers.
What I thought I would do was to try and create a meat-free Kiev using Fava Beans instead of chicken, while retaining the chilled butter in the centre and the crisp ‘fried’ breadcrumbs on the outside. Above is a step-by-step pictorial guide to how I made it, with more detail in the recipe below:
Fava Bean Kiev
Fava Bean Kiev
Ingredients
- 250 g split fava beans
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 50 g butter or non dairy spread
- 1 pinch Salt
- 30 g Parsley chopped
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 1 pinch Salt & pepper
- 1 egg
- 75 g panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Cover fava beans with water and bring to boil, simmer 30 mins until soft
- Drain, and beat with wooden spoon until mushy but still with a little texture.
- Add tsp salt, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, herbs and chia seeds, to help bind together.
- Leave in a covered bowl in the fridge until cold and thickened.
- Mix it up with spoon or spatula and add half the parsley
- Take half the mixture and form four flat escalope shapes, roughly oval
- Mix the softened butter with crushed garlic and the remaining parsley
- Form into four portions and place on top of the escalopes
- Form a further four escalopes and place each on top of the butter and base, press the edges to make sure they are sealed. Return to the fridge for an hour.
- Mix the flour with salt & pepper, coat each escalope with flour, then dip into beaten egg, then into panko breadcrumbs.
- Preheat the Optimum HealthyFry
- Cook two kievs at once in the Optimum HealthyFry Air Fryer at 180c for 20 min
- Keep the kievs warm in the oven while the second batch is cooking

What a great idea! I’m always looking for new recipes and this one looks really tasty, and healthy too. I’d love to have an airfryer as I’m trying to cook more healthily and anything that allows the crisp texture without frying in lots of oil sounds simply perfect!
Lyn Pringle says
This is a great recipe that I’m sure my non-vegetarian friends and family would love as much I would ( a vegetarian for 30 years). I gave up using a deep fat fryer years ago because of the mess and health issues but I do yearn for that proper fried flavour so the Optimum Healthy Fry has got to be the answer to our dreams.

Clare B says
I love making my own potato and sweet potato wedges but don’t want to deep fry them and find they often stick in the oven. So sounds like this would be the answer as well as helping broaden the range of homemade foods I can attempt to make and make them healthier!
Jane Willis says
My much loved Actifry is now old and battered and I fear it won’t last much longer, so I’m looking to replace it. The problem with the Actifry is the constant stirring, which means it isn’t possible to cook thinks like these kievs in it, and I’d love to be able to do more than just chips and veg chips.
melanie stirling says
We really need to eat healthier and this looks simple to use.
Hazel Rea says
I’d love to win so I can make really healthy sweet potato wedges – before branching out into things like these Fava Bean Kiev. I love the way this gadget works – it sounds like it would be incredibly versatile.

My partner had an op on his upper spine last year and the medication he is on has made him put on weight. He joined my gym last week and is now going swimming every day to help both with the pain and weight gain. To win an air fryer would help with my healthy eating plan I’ve started for him this year.
