Ingredients
- 2-4 tablespoons pork lard, bacon fat, or olive oil
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 6 cups cooked pinto beans
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup water
- salt to taste
Instructions
- In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the lard. (If using bacon fat, melt over medium heat. If using olive oil, heat until shimmering over medium heat.) Add the onion and cook until it is translucent and soft, 3-5 minutes.
- Add the beans, and stir to mix. Using a potato masher, start mashing the beans as they are cooking until they are a rough puree. Add water as needed to keep the beans from getting dried out and to bring them to your desired consistency.
- Add salt to taste.
- Serve as is, or top with cilantro and/or cheese.
Notes
- You can use homemade Pinto beans or canned. Either way, you will need about 6 cups of cooked beans. A 15 ounce can of pinto beans has about 1 1/2 cups of beans.
- You can use other beans, as well! Refried black beans are great, or you could use a white bean.
