Herby Black Beans
From bellenoelle 16 years agoIngredients
- I bunch green onions shopping list
- Tbl olive oil shopping list
- 2.5 Tbl cumin (yes, that much!) shopping list
- 3 cans black beans, drained and rinsed shopping list
- 3/4 pint (400 ml) chicken stock shopping list
- 2 tsp chipotle paste shopping list
- 1 heaped tsp dried sage shopping list
- 1 heaped tsp dried oregano shopping list
- 1 heaped tsp dried thyme shopping list
- good handful fresh coriander (cilantro), stems incl shopping list
- few pinches kosher salt shopping list
- avocado shopping list
How to make it
- Chop the green onions, white and green bits.
- Heat oil over med heat in a heavy-based saucepan or pot and saute the onions for a couple of minutes.
- Add the cumin and stir in to toast the spice.
- Add the chipotle paste and stir it up with all the onions.
- Stir in the beans, then add the broth and all of the herbs.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer until most of the liquid is gone.
- Add salt to taste, then puree about half of the beans with a hand blender (easiest!) or food processor. This is essential to release the flavours, so don't give in to the temptation to skip this step. ;o)
- Serve with slices of avocado on top.
- I paired this with pan-fried polenta, fried eggs, and balsamic tomatoes, and it was positively dreamy. I've been tweaking my black bean recipe for at least four years and this is the best combination yet!
