Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 ounces dried pinto beans
  • 6 ½ cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 small fresh jalapeno finely chopped
  • 1 small ripe tomato chopped
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Rinse the beans and place them in a large pot with the water.
  2. Bring the beans up to the boil. Partly cover beans and cook at a simmer for 1 hour.
  3. Add the salt and half of the chopped onion. Continue cooking, uncovered, for about 30 minutes more.

  6. Remove one cup of the beans with their liquid and process them in a blender or food processor until as fine as possible.
  7. Return the pureed mixture to the beans and stir together.
  8. Add the tomato-onion mixture to the beans and continue to simmer about 5 minutes more.
  9. Serve as is or with toppings of grated cheddar cheese, chopped scallions, sour cream and salsa.
