FRIJOLES III

Steps:

• Place beans in a large pot with onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, garlic, and lard; add enough water to cover with 4 to 5 inches of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook for 2 to 3 hours. Depending on the beans, it may take up to 5 hours. Add more water if necessary.
• When beans are soft, season to taste with salt.

CORN FRITTERS WITH GREEN CHILE BUTTERMILK DIP

Steps:

• For the buttermilk dip, heat the olive oil and the frying peppers in a small skillet over medium-low heat, seasoning them with ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook the peppers slowly, turning them often, until they are tender at the stem, about 15 minutes.
• Pinch out the pepper stems and most of the seeds, and put the peppers in a blender. Add the olive oil from the skillet and the garlic, buttermilk, sour cream, sugar, basil, lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon salt. Process until smooth. Pour into a bowl for serving. (This sauce can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated.).
• For the fritters, heat the 4 cups oil to 370°F While the oil is heating, shuck the corn, cut the kernels shallowly off the cobs, and then scrape the rest of the pulp with the back of the knife. Measure out 2 cups of kernels and pulp.
• In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, beer, remaining tablespoon of canola oil, tarragon, lemon zest, and reserved corn. Add the flour mixture and whisk quickly to combine. (Don't overmix-a few lumps are okay.).
• Working in batches, drop the fritter mixture by the teaspoonful into the hot oil. Cook until dark golden brown, about 3 minutes. Drain well on paper towels and serve with the buttermilk dip.

FRIJOLES I

Steps:

• Soak pinto beans overnight in 1 quart of water.
• Place beans into a large saucepan, and add water to cover. Add onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer over medium-low heat until beans are tender, about 1 to 2 hours. Add additional water to the pan as needed to prevent burning.
• Mash the beans with a potato masher, and mix in the butter. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thickened and the butter is absorbed. Adjust seasonings to taste.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the bean mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish, and sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Bake for 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
