Categories     Beans

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb dried pinto bean
1/4 cup oil
2 onions, diced
8 ounces bacon, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 green serrano chilies, minced
1 teaspoon cumin powder
6 cups water
salt, as needed
ground black pepper, as needed

Steps:

  • Soak the pinto beans in water overnight in a large mixing bowl.
  • Drain the beans and set aside.
  • In a dutch oven or other large vessel put the oil, onions, bacon, garlic and green chilies and cook over medium or medium-high heat until the onions are transparent and the edges of the onion have very lightly browned. Stir in the cumin powder.
  • Add the beans and 6 cups water. Increase heat to high, bring liquid to a boil, decrease heat to medium or medium-low and cook until the beans are very tender, adding more water as needed. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
  • I like to serve these beans in ramekins. They make a nice side dish to any Mexican meal.
