A black bean recipe that a good friend gave me back in college. It is awesome! I used red wine vinegar instead of regular last time and that worked out pretty well. I also don't think it needs that much olive oil. Maybe try 1/2 a cup. Optional: Top with green onions and shredded cheese Or serve with nachos or flour tortilla with cheese
Ingredients:
1 lb dried black beans, soaked overnight (turtle beans)
1 large green pepper, halved
6 cups water
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves (or more)
1 green pepper, chopped
4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons sugar
2/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons vinegar
Directions:
1. Soak the beans overnight.
2. Cook (covered) beans, water, and halved green pepper for 1 hour in a large pot.
3. Remove halved green pepper, and put in rest of ingredients.
4. Simmer for 2 hours or until ready to serve.
5. Serve with rice.
6. Optional:.
7. Top with green onions and shredded cheese.
8. Or serve with nachos or flour tortilla with cheese.
