Refriedbeans Recipes

Steps:

• Put the pinto beans in a bowl and cover with 2 inches of water. Soak for 8 hours to overnight.
• Transfer the beans to a medium saucepan and cover with water by about 1 inch. Add onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let cook for 1 1/2 hours.
• Use a colander to separate the liquid from the solids. Transfer the solids to a food processor with diced tomatoes, hot sauce, oregano, and cayenne. Blend to desired consistency.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and chili powder and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in the beans and chicken broth and cook until the beans are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Mash the beans coarsely with the back of a wooden spoon, adding more chicken broth to moisten, if needed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the cilantro.

Steps:

• Reserve about a third of the beans. Mash the rest of the beans in a medium bowl with a large fork. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring, until lightly browned. Add the spices and cook until fragrant about 1 minute.
• Add the mashed beans and half the broth; cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved beans and the enough of the remaining broth to loosen up the beans. Simmer until the beans are thick but not pasty, about 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the fresh coriander, if desired, and serve.

Steps:

• Put beans and water into Dutch oven.
• Soak at least six hours.
• Pour beans into colander and rinse thoroughly.
• Add two cups water back into the Dutch oven, along with bacon grease, garlic powder, bouillon and chili powder.
• Bring to a boil.
• Cover and reduce heat, simmering for about four to six hours.
• Stir occasionally.
• You'll know when the frijoles are done because they'll be very tender.
• Mash until about only half are left whole.

Steps:

• Place pinto beans and garlic in crockpot and cover with water.
• Cook beans until tender, usually 3 hours on high.
• In a large saucepan, melt the bacon grease on medium heat.
• Add DRAINED beans to saucepan, do not discard the bean broth though.
• Mash the beans with a mashed potato masher, you can make the beans as lumpy or as smooth as you wish.
• Once they are mashed to your liking, add the butter.
• Add enough bean broth to the mashed beans. You can add more if you like your beans close to the runny side, or less broth if you like your beans nice and thick.
• Lastly season with salt/pepper to your liking.
• ENJOY!
