For traditional refried beans, mash well drained beans in hot oil or bacon drippings instead of processing them. This keeps well in the fridge, or freezes wonderfully. Makes a great dip just as is or add a tsp. of hot sauce.
Ingredients:
2 cups dried pinto beans or 2 cups dried kidney beans or 2 cups dried black beans
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
2 garlic cloves
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 pinch salt
Directions:
1. Soak beans for at least 8 hours.
2. Add beans, onion, garlic and oil to crockpot and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours.
3. Drain beans, reserving 1 to 2 cups of liquid.
4. Process until desired consistency in food processor, adding liquid as necessary.
5. Salt to taste.
