5 cups water |
1 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup minced onion |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon chili powder |
1 tablespoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Sort and wash beans; place beans in a large pot add enough water to cover the beans by more then three inches, one teaspoons salt (salt added during soaking tenderizes the bean skins), cover and soak over night.
2. Drain beans, and return to pan. Add the 5 cups water, onion, and garlic; bring to a boil.
3. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until tender.
4. Drain beans in a colander over a bowl, reserving cooking liquid.
5. Combine 1-1/2 cups cooking liquid, chili powder, cumin, pepper, and salt in the pan. Add half of the beans, and mash.
