Beans

1 bag dried pinto or black beans

1 onion

1 garlic clove

1 tablespoon salt

1 tablespoon cumin

1 tablespoon coriander

fresh cilantro

Soak beans overnight. Rinse

Saute onion and garlic for 5-7 minutes in sauce pan. Add beans with 4-5 cups water. Allow beans to come to boil. Reduce heat and cook covered on low heat for a few hours until done. Add seasonings.

Add or take away water as needed during the cooking process. For thicker mixture, puree or mash 1-2 cups of the bean mixture when beans are completely soft. Beans can also cook in a crock pot.
