INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 1 pound dry pinto beans, rinsed
    • 🧄 2 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
    • 🍅 1 medium tomato, diced
    • 2 tablespoons ground cumin
    • 1 tablespoon chili powder
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 🧂 Salt to taste

STEPS

1

Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. When beans come to a boil, drain and return them to the same pot.

2

Cover beans with water by 2 inches; stir in 1 tablespoon garlic, tomato, cumin, and chili powder. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, and simmer until beans are very soft, about 3 hours and 45 minutes, adding water as needed.

3

Once beans have cooked, mash them with remaining garlic, oil, and salt; add water as needed to achieve desired consistency. Place over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
