Categories     Main Course     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups homemade pinto beans ((include some cooking liquid or boiling broth too))
3 tablespoons olive oil (or vegetable oil of choice)
⅓ cup of finely chopped white onion
2 to 3 whole dried chiles de arbol (or dried/fresh chile of choice)
large pinch sea salt (adjust to taste (kosher salt may also be used))

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan, once it's hot add the onion and cook until browned and crispy (this gives it a great taste, or you can just sauté until tender.) Next add the dried or fresh chiles and cook just until they brown or begin to blister -- this happens quickly so be ready to proceed.
  • Next add the boiled beans -- be careful because it will splash, allow to fry for about 3 minutes. Next add about ¼ cup of the broth and then begin mashing the beans until you achieve the desired texture. The broth will help with the mashing and you'll need to add a little bit of the broth to help you achieve the texture you desire.
  • Continue to "fry" for about 5-8 minutes or until they have the consistency you want. Remember to adjust the consistency to your needs by cooking longer to thicken or adding more broth/water to thin out. Taste and add salt as desired.

FRIJOLES REFRITOS



Frijoles Refritos image

Provided by Marilyn Tausend

Categories     Bean     Side     Cinco de Mayo

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons freshly rendered pork lard, bacon fat, or canola or safflower oil
Frijoles Chinos
For the Optional Topping
1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco or queso anejo
1/4 cup chopped white onion, if serving in a roll

Steps:

  • Heat the lard in a skillet over low heat, add the beans, and cook, mashing and stirring, until quite dry and a wooden spoon pulled through the center of the beans forms a long canyon, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • If preparing the beans central Mexico-style, serve immediately, topped with a little cheese, if desired. If preparing rolled beans, continue to cook until the mass of beans pulls away from the side of the skillet. Shake the pan back and forth, sliding the beans to one side, then tilt the pan so the mass of beans flips over into a roll, like an omelet. A spatula may be used to help turn it. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with the cheese and onion, and accompany with the totopos.
