Title: Tonybels refried beans
Post by: Tonybel on February 23, 2015, 06:09:47 PM: Here is our refried beans recipe.

Start with a large can of bush pinto beans or Goya. If found this are the next best thing to doing them yourself.

Chop a 1/4 onion and get 4-5 chile de Arbol or 3 jalapeños

Get your CI nice and hot with a little oil and add the onion first. Move them around for about 3 min.

Then add your peppers. In this picture I decided to add more peppers at the last minute.

Add your beans and bring to a boil and then smash them.

Smashe them to the creaminess you want.

You can also do them with a little lard instead of oil. You can do this with out the peppers.

Do you ever add anything as a thickener - or just let them simmer to the the thickness you like?

We do finely chopped jalapeños also. Both are good.
We just let it simmer until it's where we want it.
