Mexican Fried Beans With Onions And Garlic

1. 1

   In a large well seasoned or nonstick skillet, heat the oil or pork fat over medium heat.

2. 2

   Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden, about 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Stir in the garlic, cook for a minute or so, then use a slotted spoon to scoop in about 1/4 of the beans, leaving most of the liquid behind.

4. 4

   With a bean or potato masher, or the back of a large spoon, mash the beans into a coarse puree.

5. 5

   Add another portion of the beans, mash them in, and continue until all the beans have been added and coarsely mashed.

6. 6

   Add about a cup of bean liquid or water and stir frequently over the heat until the beans are still a little soupier than you'd like to serve them (they'll thicken as they sit.) Taste and season with salt if needed.
