Instructions
- Soak bean over night. Discard water.
- In a pressure cooker combine soaked beans, ham hock and bay leaves and add enough water to cover beans at least 3 inches, about 6 cups.
- Bring to a boil, then cover and lock the lid. Cook 45 minutes in a pressure cooker on medium-low heat.
- After 45 minutes shut heat off and wait for the pressure to come out of the pot before removing the lid.
- Meanwhile, in a large saute pan add oil; saute onion, garlic, and parsley on a medium heat. Add salt and pepper to taste and cook until onions are translucent, about 10-15 minutes.
- Add onion mixture to the beans and cook uncovered 20-30 more minutes, or until beans have a thick consistency.
