Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 lb dried black beans (2/3 cup), picked over and rinsed
1 small onion, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
2 fresh cilantro sprigs
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
6 cups cold water
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring beans, onion, cilantro sprigs, oil, and water to a boil in a 2-quart heavy pot. Reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until beans are just tender, about 1 1/4 hours. Add salt and simmer, uncovered, until liquid is evaporated to just below level of beans. Season with salt and discard cilantro sprigs.
