EASY REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and are turning translucent, about 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic, chili powder and cumin. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the drained beans and water. Stir, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and remove the lid. Use a potato masher or the back of a fork to mash up about at least half of the beans, until you reach your desired consistency. Continue to cook the beans, uncovered, stirring often, for 3 more minutes.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste, and add more salt and lime juice if necessary. If the beans seem dry, add a very small splash of water and stir to combine. Cover until you're ready to serve.

REFRIED BEANS

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.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Rinse the beans thoroughly, then place them in a large pot with the bacon. Pour water over the top. Use enough water to cover the beans by 1 or 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer for 2 to 3 hours. If the liquid seems to evaporate too quickly, add more water during the cooking process. The beans are done when they're fork tender, without much bite.
• Add the chili powder, salt and pepper. Stir and taste, adjusting the seasoning as necessary. Add in other seasonings as desired.
• Heat the fat in a large skillet and cook the onions until translucent. Add the beans to the skillet and mash them until they're the consistency you want. Stir and cook them until heated, then add the grated cheese. Top with the jalapenos.

REFRIED BEANS

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.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup lard or vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add 1/2 diced onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes.
• Add two 15-ounce cans black beans (drained), 1 cup chicken broth and 1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano. Cook, lightly mashing the beans, until the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
• Add 1 more cup chicken broth and cook until slightly saucy, about 7 minutes. (Stir in a splash of water if the beans are too thick.)
• Season with salt and pepper and top with crumbled Cotija cheese.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, combine the beans, bay leaf, and enough water to cover by 1 to 2 inches. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the beans are very tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours, adding more water as necessary to keep covered. When the beans are soft, mash in the pot with a potato masher or the back of heavy wooden spoon. Remove from the heat.
• In a large, heavy skillet, heat the bacon fat over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapeno, chili powder, cumin, salt, and cayenne, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Add the beans and any cooking liquid from the pot, and the oregano, and stir to combine. Cook, stirring with a heavy wooden spoon, until the mixture forms a thick paste, 15 to 20 minutes, adding water a bit at a time to keep the beans from drying out too much.
• Remove from the heat and transfer to a decorative bowl. Sprinkle with the cheese and cilantro, and serve.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Heat the coconut oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, coriander and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook until the spices are toasted and the garlic has softened, 1 minute. Add the pinto beans, chicken stock and chipotle puree and bring to a boil. Cook until the stock has reduced by about half and the mixture has thickened, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Off the heat, mash the beans to a smooth paste with a potato masher, leaving some beans partially mashed to add some texture. The beans should have the consistency of a thick sauce; if they're difficult to stir, they're too thick. If needed, thin the beans out with extra chicken stock, 1 tablespoon at a time.
• Finish by stirring in the lime juice and adding salt to taste. Garnish with queso fresco and cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.

REFRIED BEANS-(BOBBY'S)

Steps:

• 1. Rinse the beans in water and remove any small stones, or bad beans.
• 2. Put beans into a pot and cover beans with at least 3-inches of water-about 3 quarts for 2-1/2 cups of dry beans. Bring to a boil and lower heat to simmer, covered, cook for 2-1/2 hours. The cooking time will vary depending on the batch of beans you have. The beans are done when they are soft and the skin is just beginning to break open. Drain the beans from the cooking water.
• 3. Add the onions, chili powder, cumin and fat/lard/oil to a wide, sturdy frying pan on medium-high heat.Cook onions until translucent.(Note the onions are optional, you can skip them if you want.) Add the drained beans and about a 1/4 cup of water to the pan. Stir. Using a potato masher, mash the beans in the pan, while you are cooking them, until they are a rough puree. Add more water if necessary to keep the fried beans from getting too dried-out. Add salt to taste. Add a few slices of cheddar cheese, or some (1/2-cup) grated cheddar cheese if desired. When beans are heated through, the beans are ready.
• 4. NOTE: Many recipes call for soaking the beans overnight and discarding the soaking liquid. I don't. I discard the cooking liquid and add some water back into the frying pan when frying the beans.

BUFFY'S REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Melt the lard in a deep, heavy pot over medium-high heat; when the lard is hot, add the beans. Stir constantly while cooking until the beans reach a paste-like consistency. Season with salt. Reduce heat to low and stir in the water. Simmer and stir until the beans cook down to your desired consistency.

AUTHENTIC REFRIED BEANS

• Put beans and water into Dutch oven.
• Soak at least six hours.

• 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.

• You'll know when the frijoles are done because they'll be very tender.
• Mash until about only half are left whole.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Lightly drain the beans, reserving the juice from the tin, but do not rinse (you want the beans in about half the liquid from the can). Depending on the texture you prefer, either mash them roughly in a bowl or blitz them using a blender until smooth. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan or casserole and cook the onions for 8-10 mins until soft and golden. Scatter in the garlic, chilli and cumin seeds, and sizzle everything for 2 mins more. Tip in the beans, oregano, paprika and a pinch of salt. Cook everything together for 5 mins until the beans have heated through adding more reserved bean juice if it's too thick. Serve straightaway with a sprinkling of coriander, if you like, or leave to cool and keep chilled. Will keep chilled for up to three days or frozen for a month. Reheat with a splash of water mixed in.
