Method :
Pour
the oil into a large, heavy bottomed saucepan. Add
the onions, peas, fava beans, carrot, celery, chili pepper, and a
dash of salt. Saute
for about 10 minutes until ender and lightly browned. Add
the chard or spinach and the tomatoes and simmer for 15 minutes. Pour
in the boiling water and leave to simmer gently for 40 minutes,
adding more salt if necessary.
Using
a fork or balloon whisk, beat the eggs with salt, pepper, and the
grated parmesan. Toast
the bread and when golden brown, rub both sides of each slice with
the garlic. Place
a slice in each soup bowl or in individual straight sided
earthenware dishes, and pour a quarter of the beaten egg mixture
over each serving. Give
the soup a final stir and then ladle into the bowls. Serve
immediately.
