Ingredients

How to make it

  • Melt the lard in a heavy iron skillet.
  • Fry the cooked beans, stirring and mashing to form a large cake-like mass.
  • Grated onion, white Mexican cheese may be added while cooking. Add broth if beans dry out.
  • Adjust the salt and garnish using a little grated white cheese.
  • Note: "Frijoles Refritos" does not mean "re-fried beans" since the beans are only fried once. The proper translation is "well-fried beans."
