Twice Cooked Refried Beans With Cumin Recipes

TWICE-COOKED (REFRIED) BEANS WITH CUMIN

Steps:

• Add oil to a large skillet, preferably nonstick; place over medium heat.
• When the oil is hot, add in the onion and cook/stir until it is golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Add in the cumin and cook/stir, 1 minute.
• Add in the beans and mash with a large fork or potato masher; continue to cook and mash, stirring, until the beans are more or less broken up (some remaining chunks are fine).
• Season with salt and pepper; add the cayenne and more cumin if you like, and serve.

HOMEMADE REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Rinse beans and check for dirt or debris.
• Place all ingredients in a 4QT slow cooker except drippings. Cook on High for 8 hours.
• Remove the beans from the slow cooker reserving the cooking liquid.
• Mash beans to desired consistency adding water as needed. Stir in bacon drippings if desired. Taste and season with salt & pepper.

TWICE FRIED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 3 cups of the peanut oil in a large pot to deep-fry temperature (350 degrees F), and fry the beans in batches until tender but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer beans to paper towels to drain.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a wok or large skillet. Add the scallions and garlic and cook just long enough to release the aromas, about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and green beans and mix well to coat the beans. Stir in the water, soy sauce, sugar, salt and pepper, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, tossing to heat through. Serve immediately.

REFRIED BEANS WITHOUT THE REFRY

Steps:

• Place the onion, rinsed beans, jalapeno, garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin into a slow cooker. Pour in the water and stir to combine. Cook on High for 8 hours, adding more water as needed. Note: if more than 1 cup of water has evaporated during cooking, then the temperature is too high.
• Once the beans have cooked, strain them, and reserve the liquid. Mash the beans with a potato masher, adding the reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency.

REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Lightly drain the beans, reserving the juice from the tin, but do not rinse (you want the beans in about half the liquid from the can). Depending on the texture you prefer, either mash them roughly in a bowl or blitz them using a blender until smooth. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan or casserole and cook the onions for 8-10 mins until soft and golden. Scatter in the garlic, chilli and cumin seeds, and sizzle everything for 2 mins more. Tip in the beans, oregano, paprika and a pinch of salt. Cook everything together for 5 mins until the beans have heated through adding more reserved bean juice if it's too thick. Serve straightaway with a sprinkling of coriander, if you like, or leave to cool and keep chilled. Will keep chilled for up to three days or frozen for a month. Reheat with a splash of water mixed in.

HOME-STYLE REFRIED BEANS
