Steps:

• For the poblano cream: Place tomatillos in a large saucepan with stock and simmer over low heat until tomatillos are soft and liquid is reduced by half, about 15 minutes.

• For the refried beans: Open, rinse, and drain the pinto beans. In a large saute pan or cast-iron skillet add lard and onions and cook over medium-low heat until onions are soft and translucent. Add drained beans and 1/2 cup water and cook slowly. Mash beans with a potato masher and simmer until slightly thickened.
