Spicy Refried Beans image

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups dried red kidney beans
6 cups water
2 tablespoons corn oil
1 1/2 onion
3 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 cup tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 jalapeno peppers
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Rinse the beans and put them in a large pot with the water, corn oil, 1/2 onion, chopped, and 2 teaspoons of salt.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then turn down the heat, cover the pot, and simmer the beans gently for about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the cover and cook the beans a little while longer, until completely tender and the remaining liquid is thick.
  • In a very large skillet, beat the olive oil and saute remaining onion, chopped, and the garlic until golden.
  • Add the tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, lemon juice, and spices.
  • Pour the beans, together with their liquid, into the seasonings and stir.
  • Over a low flame, and stirring often, cook the beans together with the seasonings until the mixture is quite thick, but still moist. Time will vary, but it could take as long as 45 minutes. If the beans become too dry, just add a little water.
  • Stir in the butter and if desired the grated cheese. Continue stirring over the low flame until the butter and cheese are melted.

These refried beans were a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed them. I think they would be great with a milder chili powder.

I'm not a huge fan of refried beans, but these were actually pretty good. I liked the addition of the spices and salsa.

These refried beans are a great way to use up leftover canned beans. They're also really affordable to make.

These refried beans are amazing! They're so flavorful and creamy. I love the little bit of spice that comes from the chili powder and cumin. I'll definitely be making these again and again.

I was disappointed with these refried beans. They were bland and lacked flavor. I ended up adding a bunch of extra spices just to make them edible.

These refried beans were just okay. I found them to be a bit too spicy for my taste, and the texture was a little too mushy. I think I'll stick to my old refried bean recipe.

These beans were delicious! I made them for my family last night and they loved them. The spice level was perfect - just enough to give it a little kick without being overpowering.

I love how easy these refried beans are to make. I always have canned beans in my pantry, so I can whip up a batch of these in no time. They're also really versatile - I've used them in tacos, burritos, and even as a dip.

These spicy refried beans were a hit at my last Mexican-themed dinner party. The flavors were bold and complex, and the beans were the perfect consistency. I'll definitely be making them again!
