Refried Beans
This Recipe is pretty authentic.
Soak pinto beans overnight in water and then pour off the water and
rinse continually until water is clear
Barely cover beans with water, bring to a boil and simmer
approximately 3 hours!
Sautee lots of fresh garlic and chopped onions and add to the beans.
Also add bay leaves and cumin (lots).
Now for the trick:
When beans are tender add salt to taste, remove from heat and mash
them good with a potato masher etc... Then (remember the trick for
making fluffy potatoes? Well it works for pintos as well) put the
mashed beans into a deep casserole dish and bake covered in the oven
for approximately 1 hour on 350 degrees F.
Muy Saboroso,
These beans will be just like the real thing only no added fats!
