Black Beans

食材

16 oz. dried black beans

1 tablespoon of lard, bacon grease, peanut oil or canola oil

1 onion, diced

4 cloves of garlic, minced

1 carrot, diced

8 jalapenos, chopped

4 cups of water

4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth

1 tablespoon dry oregano

2 teaspoon of cumin

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1/4 cup lime juice

1 tsp salt

步驟

Soak the beans covered in water—either overnight or the quick soak method in which you place the beans in a pot, cover with water, bring to a boil, cover and remove from heat and let sit for one hour.

Drain the soaked beans.

In the pot you’re going to cook the beans, sauté the onions, jalapenos, and carrots in your preferred fat for 10 minutes and then add the garlic for one minute.

Add the beans and oregano. Cover beans with water and chicken broth, bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to low. Stir occasionally.

After 1 1/2 hours, add the cumin, tomato paste, lime juice, and salt and cook for 30 more minutes or until beans are tender. At this point, smash a few against the side of the pot with a spoon to thicken the broth a bit, stir the pot and serve.
