I like burritos, I think it all started with a great fast food place in my hometown of Redlands, Cuca's. My California family and friends know what I'm talking about. You can see what I'm talking about at their site here. They make homemade refried pinto beans. My husband does not like pinto beans, he likes black beans, if you really can even say he likes beans at all. When I make beans for burritos I make black beans. A few Sunday's ago, my friend Whitney and her husband Johhny came over with soaked red beans and the fixings for tacos/burritos. We joined forces and I prepared her beans in my pressure cooker. Her husband had found a recipe and told us the ingredients and we remembered some of them. Those beans turned out amazing. Tonight I recreated those beans, but I used black beans instead. I really like all the flavor in these beans.
These beans are great as a side dish or inside a burrito or taco.
Ingredients for this recipe are:
1 lb. Brined Black Beans (recipe found here for brining)
1/2 lb. Bacon (not pictured)
1 Yellow Onion
1/2 a Bunch of Cilantro
1 tablespoon whole Cumin
1 tablespoon Salt
Water
Peel and dice the onion.
Cut off extra stems of cilantro and roughly chop.
Slice bacon into 1 inch pieces.
Pour beans into pressure cooker pot or a large stock pot.
Add bacon, onion, cilantro, cumin, and salt to beans.
Add enough water to cover beans by two inches.
Add lid to pressure cooker and set to high for 30 minutes.
After cooking is done and pressure has been released remove lid and serve beans.
Enjoy!
