Ingredients

• 1 pound dried pinto beans
• 1 onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Directions

1. Rinse the pinto beans under cold water, removing any debris or stones.
2. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and minced jalapeno pepper. Saute for 5-7 minutes, until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
3. Add the cumin, chili powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to coat the onions and spices.
4. Add the rinsed pinto beans, vegetable broth, and water to the pot. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
5. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the beans simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until they are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
6. Once the beans are tender, remove the pot from the heat. Use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to lightly mash some of the beans. This will help thicken the broth.
7. Serve the Evana's Pinto Beans hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. Enjoy as a side dish or as a main course with warm tortillas.
