Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups cooked beans, with some of the cooking liquid
1/3 cup white onion, finely chopped
3 Tbsp lard (of vegetable oil, bacon or chorizo drippings)
To garnish: Mexican Crumbling Cheese and Tortilla chips.
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil or lard in a frying pan over a medium-low heat.
  • Start frying the onions until they are transparent and start to brown. About two minutes.
  • Add the beans and mash down using a potato masher until they become a paste. Blend to a smooth puree and then add them to the frying pan where the onions are being browned. "They will become a thick puree, keep scrapping from the edges and bottom of the pan. If you prefer to add a little more oil, this is the time".
  • Tilt the frying pan sideways and form a roll with the bean paste. I like to flip them like pancakes a little bit. Taste to check if it needs salt.
