Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil or lard
- ¼ cup finely chopped white onion
- 2 ½ cups cooked pinto beans and their broth
- Salt to taste
Instruction
- Heat the oil or lard in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and fry until the edges turn brown about 5 minutes.
- Add the beans to the skillet, reserving the broth to add later. Smash the beans using a bean masher or a heavy glass (like in the picture) to press the beans down until they have a pasty texture. Use a heavy glass to mash the beans if you don’t have a bean masher.
- Add the broth little by little. Stir and keep mashing the beans until they have a creamy consistency. Add more bean broth as needed to have the desired consistency. Season beans with salt and serve topped with crumbled cheese.
