- Sort through your beans and remove any pebbles or small rocks. You may find 1-2 in each batch of beans. Strain your beans really well then add to pot.
- Cover the beans with filtered water, you want about 1-2 inches of water above the beans. Add in 3/4 of onion (cut in big chunks) and peeled whole garlic cloves. Do not add salt yet, we will add later.
- With the lid off, cook the beans for around 2 hours or more or until the beans are fully cooked, soft and tender. Throughout the cooking process you will need to add 2-3 cups of additional (HOT) filtered water as the water in the pot will begin to evaporate.
- Once the beans are cooked and tender add a generous 2 pinches of salt, mix then taste, add more salt to your liking.
- Chop the remaining white onion and jalapeños… remove the seeds!
- In a pan add 2-3 tbsp oil. Then sauté the onion and jalapeño for a few minutes. Add in at least 3 cups of cooked beans, if some of the juice comes with that’s ok!
- In a cup combine 1 tsp of bouillon paste + 4 tbsp warm water. Mix to dissolve then add into beans. Mash beans, taste… add salt to your liking and enjoy!
