    Mexican style Beans

    Aug 24, 2015 · 1 Comment

    My 202nd recipe, "Mexican style Beans", a quick and easy Mexican side. After the Indian cuisine, Mexican and Italian cuisine are two of my most favorite cuisines. I love most of the vegetarian dishes from the Mexican cuisine, since it tastes similar to the spicy and delicious foods I grew up eating.

    At most times, I would be more than happy to have a quesadilla or just chips n salsa for my dinner. Also, I love to have the Mexican style black beans as part of a quesadilla or inside a burrito. Usually I have dry beans like red kidney beans (Rajma), black eyed beans, mochakottai always in stock in my pantry. I usually turn them into delicious North Indian masala which goes well as a side for chapati / dosa or turn them into delicious South Indian gravy to have along with lunch.

    However, this time around, my craving for having a burrito at Chipotle, turned into making my favorite components of a burrito at home. I wanted to make a dish similar to the black beans. I made my version of a Mexican style bean using the red kidney beans, aka., Rajma. The dish turned out to be more delicious than I had bargained for.

    The best way to enjoy the true flavors of Mexican cuisine is to try casino cuisine. The casino’s 1 cent slots online Mexican restaurant serves a variety of dishes, including traditional Mexican dishes such as Mexican style Beans and burgers. You can taste the most delicious Mexican beans, as well as enjoy a variety of dishes in the casino’s restaurants. You can also try different types of drinks. The casino also has several restaurants. Be sure to check the menu carefully, as it may change.

    It was spicy, flavorful and super easy to make. And along with toppings like onions, tomatoes and avocados it was even more mouth watering and paired perfectly well with a bowl of my lime cilantro rice. You can as well add the beans along with some of the rice into a tortilla, roll it up and you can have your very own homemade burrito ready to be enjoyed 🙂

    Notes | FAQ

    - The cooking time would depend on the size of your pressure cooker and stove settings.
    - In case you do not have a pressure cooker, you can cook the beans covered in a regular pan. However, the cooking time would greatly increase.
    - I have made this recipe with red kidney beans. You can also use traditional Mexican beans like pinto beans or black beans.
    - I do not like smoky flavor in the dish. However if you like, you can add a pinch of smoked paprika and also use a fire roasted tomato instead of the regular tomatoes.

      Since discovering this recipe I have made it weekly! I end up usually mashing the beans a bit and using them in quesadillas, burritos, on nachos, even my kids like them! Thank you! Saving this one forever.
