Share:
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon olive oil
- ½ small red onion
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 2 medium tomatoes finely chopped
- ¾ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 16 ounces (454g) refried beans 1 can
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the oil. Sauté the onion for about 5 minutes soft and then add in the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the chopped tomato and cook for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the spices and salt and let them simmer for about 30 seconds before adding the refried beans. Stir everything together and add a splash of water, if needed, to loosen the beans a bit.
- Continue stirring and bring everything to a simmer. Switch off the heat when the refried beans are heated through.
- Garnish with grated cheese and chopped cilantro, if desired.
