Steps:
- Dried beans soaked in water to cover generously for several hours or overnight.
- Drain soaked beans and place in a clay pot with 6 cups cold water (clay pot is optional, but beans seem to cook more evenly and have a richer taste when cooked in clay.
- Bring to a simmer slowly over moderately low heat, skimming any foam.
- Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over low heat.
- Add onion, bell pepper and garlic; saute until soft (about 15 minutes).
- When beans just begin to simmer, add sauteed vegetables and oregano. Cover, adjust heat to maintain a gentl bubble, and cook until the beans are tender, 1 hour or more.
- If additional liquid is needed, add boiling water.
- Season with salt and minced chipotle chile, if desired.
- Cool, then refrigerate overnight.
- Reheat the beans slowly. Divide among warm bowls, topping each portion with queso fresco and cilantro.
- Serve with hot tortillas.
