Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb dried black beans (picked over and rinsed)
2-3 TBL olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 jalapeno, minced (seeded)
1 TBLS salt
1 TBL chopped cilantro
fresh lime juice (optional)

Steps:

  • Place beans in large pot, cover with cold water by at least 3 inches. Soak for 6 hours or overnight. If a warm day, soak in refridgerator. Drain and rinse beans, return to pot. Cover with 3 inches water. Bring to boil over high heat, skimming the foam that rises to the top. Lower the heat and simmer gently, covered for a hour or more. Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and saute gently until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the jalapeno and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add saute mixture, salt, and cilantro to beans and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, or until very tender. Drain the beans and reserve 2 cups of cooking liquid. Pour 1 cup back into the beans and mash the beans with the back of a spoon until you have desired consistency. Add more liquid if necessary. Add lime juice if desired.

This recipe looks delicious, but I don't have any chipotle peppers. Can I substitute another ingredient?

I followed the recipe exactly, but my black beans turned out mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These black beans were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less chipotle peppers next time.
