Steps

Step 1: Making the Dish

Making the Dish
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1⁄2 onion, finely diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons minced green bell pepper
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, with their liquid
  • 1⁄2 cup water, or more if needed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method

In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat.

Add the onion, garlic, bell pepper, and cilantro, and sauté for about 3 minutes, until soft.

Add the beans, water, bay leaf, cumin, oregano, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and bring to a boil.

Turn the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add additional water, about 1⁄4 cup at a time, if the beans are drying out.

Season with the salt and pepper to taste.
