Supposedly this is the recipe they use at Chipotle for their black beans. I have made a "quick and easy" version which is below.
The real deal: http://www.chipotlefan.com/index.php?id=forums&board=rec&view=831
Ingredients:
1 pound dried black beans
1 green bell peppers, halved and seeded
8 cups water
1 medium onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon whole cumin seed - toasted
1 bay leaf
salt to taste
1/4 cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Soak the beans, then drain beans and cover with 8 cups (approx) fresh water.
Simmer, covered for approximately 1 1/2 hours, or until the beans are almost tender.
Combine green bell pepper, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, bay leaf
and a little of the cooking water in a blender. Blend on low until the mixture is smooth.
Add blended mixture to the beans.
Bring to a boil again, then reduce heat to simmer.
Add salt, sherry, and vinegar. Simmer, uncovered, until the bean mixture becomes thick, about 2 hours. Add olive oil immediately before serving
This is my quick version:
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 t. minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste
1 T. dry sherry
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Combine all ingredients in a microwave safe dish. Heat 2 min on high. Stir well.
