CREAMY PERUANO BEANS

Steps:

• Pressure cooker or slow cooker. No need to pre-soak your beans-just wash thoroughly and chose the cooking vessel of your choice. Cover with water, add chopped onion, salt and garlic and a chili (can just slice open and leave whole). Cook until they get really creamy and absorb the liquid (about 4 hours on high in slow cooker).

SPICY CHEESY REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until onion becomes translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Cook and stir refried beans into onion mixture until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir cream cheese into bean mixture. Spread mixture into a pie plate; top with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 20 minutes.

THE BEST PERUVIAN BEANS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place soaked beans in a large pot and add 5 cups vegetable broth to beans and heat to a boil. When the liquid begins boiling, cover with a lid, reduce heat and cook for one hour.
• When the beans are just about ready, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add onions and garlic sauté until softened, stirring frequently so they don't burn or get too brown, about 5-8 minutes. Add aji amarillo paste then cook for an additional 2 minutes.
• Add the mixture from the skillet to the beans. Taste, add salt and pepper as needed. Let the beans cook with the added ingredients for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
• While the beans are finishing up cooking, combine the onions, chile, cilantro and lime juice in small bowl and mix together. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• When the beans are ready, serve them up with the onions on top and more cilantro and a lime wedge if desired.
