MEXICAN REFRIED PINTO BEANS, FRIJOLES REFRITOS
My grandmother would cook a pot of pinto beans every other day. It was a staple like our tortilla. It had to be part of our meal on a daily basis. She would prepare cooked from the pot or in different dishes or my favorite mashed and fried in lard or bacon grease and mashed. They are to die for. There is nothing like a side dish...

Steps:
- 1. After making your pot of pinto beans see my post for Frijoles Charros or cook a pot of pinto beans, cleaned, sorted, rinsed. Put into a large pot cover with cold water add a piece of salt pork or ham bone, half an onion and three cloves garlic. Add a teaspoon of salt and cover. Cook over a low flame 3 to 4 hours until beans are tender. Stir every half hour making sure the water does not evaporate. If the water goes down add a little more. You can now proceed remove from the pot the amount of beans called for to make refried pinto beans.
- 2. In a large skillet fry 6 slices bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and crumble set aside. In the hot bacon greese add 2 or 3 cups cooked tender beans ( no liquid just beans) if you do not have bacon greese you can use pork lard or if you do not want to use lard you can use canola oil. My preference is bacon greese or lard. The pinto beans have such a delicious flavor when done in bacon greese or lard. With a potato masher begin mashing the beans down to a paste. Keep your flame at a medium heat. Keep mashing until the beans start to move away from the sides of the skillet. you might have to add a little more greese or lard or oil. Beans should be soft and creamy and mashed down to a smooth consistency. Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Taste to see if seasonigs are right. Once beans start breaking away from the side of the skillet they are ready. Serve as a side dish or with cheese melted on them or as a dip. If making toastadas just slather on a crisp hard corn tortilla with a little salsa and cheese. Enjoy. Great as an appetizers on crisp bread or crispy mini tortillas.
- 3. In my picture above I show them used on Molletes. As an example. Molletes is a Mexican crisp bread roll slathered with refried beans and melted cheese they are served cut up as appetizers or as a snack.

FRIJOLES REFRITOS (REFRIED BEANS)
When I have left over pinto beans, this is our favorite recipe. Once you taste it, you'll never settle for canned refried beans again. Queso Blanco is not a melting cheese but it becomes soft and creamy when heated. In this recipe you get yummy savory beans with creamy little bits of cheese. Delicious!

Steps:
- Place beans and juice in blender or food processor. Blend just enough to break into small pieces.
- Cook and stir onion and jalapeno in hot lard or butter until tender. Stir in beans 1 cup at a time until they are all incorporated.
- Continue cooking and stirring constantly until mixture thickens and you can see the bottom of the pan as you stir.
- Add cheese and stir until well-blended. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Note: My home cooked pinto beans tend to be spicy. If you are using mild beans or canned beans, you might want to add a couple cloves of minced garlic and 1/2-1 teaspoon cumin.

MEXICAN TAKE-OUT FRIJOLES REFRITOS (REFRIED BEANS)
Refried beans are a matter of taste, and for those who grew up eating good Mexican food, they can also be a point of contention. Some think they should be spiced with cumin and chili powder, while others think the flavor of the beans should shine. Some think they should be mashed and refried to a thick, mortar-like paste, while others feel they should be kept loose, perhaps even adding extra water to thin them. We like ours simple, with just the flavor of caramelized onions in the background to give them depth.

Steps:
- Let the beans soak overnight in a large bowl, in enough water to cover them by 2 inches or quick-soak them by rinsing the beans in a colander under cold water and discard any discolored ones. Combine the beans in a soup pot with enough cold water to cover them by 2 inches, bring the water to a boil. Let the beans boil for 2 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let the beans soak, covered, for 1 hour.
- Drain the beans, pour them back into a pan, and add enough water to cover them by 2 inches. Cook the beans over low heat, uncovered, for 30-45 minutes or until almost cooked through. Add the salt and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the beans are cooked and creamy inside. Add more hot water if necessary to keep the beans just covered.
- Drain the beans and reserve the liquid. Put the beans back in the pot with about 1 cup of their cooking liquid. Mash them with a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon until they are creamy. Add more liquid if necessary.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute or so, then add the mashed beans. Continue to cook, stirring about 10 minutes, or until the beans are the desired thickness. Add more bean liquid if you like your beans thinner. Taste and season with more salt if needed. Serve with the crumbled cheese.
