In a large saucepan bring water to a boil. Rinse rice; stir into boiling
water. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in dill, parsley,
cilantro, fava beans, turmeric, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Cover and
simmer on lowest heat for 40 to 45 minutes. Note: It's normal to end up
with crispy rice (called Tadig) on the bottom of the pot after cooking; it's
delicious.
