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.

Beautiful job Tony. Love frijoles refritos! Chiles de arbol? nice touch. in Texas we used jalapeños most of the time...but I like the arbors...
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.

Love this, but will have to try with peppers. I usually just use some shredded cheese. Glad to know using canned beans isn't "cheating"
