During the summer of 2022, Adam and I went to Cabo, and I ate alot of refried beans. I have been thinking about all the amazing things I had while in Cabo. Tonight, I made a super easy Instant Pot bean recipe that I will be making again and again.
No-Fry Refried Beans from Instant Pot Miracle (with some modifications)
Serves 6-8 adults
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups dried pinto beans
5 cups fat free vegetable broth
4-6 sprigs of fresh cilantro
1/2 t plus 1/4 t cumin
1 bay leaf
1 T canola oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 small jalapeno pepper seeds removed (I only used 1/2)
3 garlic cloves minced
salt and pepper
Rinse beans with cold water and remove any shriveled beans or discolored beans. Add beans to Instant Pot. Add broth, cilantro, and 1/2 teaspoon of cumin and 1 bay leaf. Close the lid and select MANUAL and chose HIGH PRESSURE for 40 minutes. When complete, allow a natural release.
Pour beans into colander set over a large bowl to catch the bean liquid. Discard cilantro and bay leaf.
Pour 1 1/2 c of bean liquid into a measuring cup.
Press sauté on the pot. When hot add oil. Then add onion, jalapeño and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Press cancel and add cumin. Add bean liquid.
In a blender pour the contents of the pot and blend VERY quickly as to NOT make it smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
