Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup lard, bacon drippings or peanut oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups well-seasoned cooked pinto beans, plus 1 cup of the cooking liquid
  • salt to taste
  • crema or crumbled Asadero or Monterrey Jack cheese
  • minced jalapeño

Directions
  1. Warm the fat in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onions and garlic, and sauté until they are softened, about 3 minutes. Add the drained beans to the skillet and mash them, adding the liquid a tablespoon at a time, until you reach a fairly smooth and moist consistency. Continue to cook, stirring up from the bottom with a spatula or large spoon, until the beans become a thick paste.
  2. Serve the beans hot, topped with the crema or cheese and a sprinkling of jalapeño.
