Mexican Fried Beans With Onions And Garlic Recipes

HOMEMADE REFRIED BEANS RECIPE

Steps:

• Chop the onion. Finely chop the garlic.
• In a medium-sized pan, heat the oil to medium and add the chopped onion. Cook until the onion becomes transparent.
• Add the chopped garlic and cook for 1 minute. Do not allow the garlic to brown which will give it a bitter taste.
• Add the cooked beans with a little bit of the cooking water plus the salt and pepper.
• Cook for 2 minutes before mashing.
• Mash the beans to the consistency you prefer.
• Cook for 5 minutes stirring continually.
• Turn off the heat and allow the beans to rest for 3 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large well seasoned or nonstick skillet, heat the oil or pork fat over medium heat.
• Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic, cook for a minute or so, then use a slotted spoon to scoop in about 1/4 of the beans, leaving most of the liquid behind.
• With a bean or potato masher, or the back of a large spoon, mash the beans into a coarse puree.
• Add another portion of the beans, mash them in, and continue until all the beans have been added and coarsely mashed.
• Add about a cup of bean liquid or water and stir frequently over the heat until the beans are still a little soupier than you'd like to serve them (they'll thicken as they sit.) Taste and season with salt if needed.
