Refried Black Beans

Recipe Ingredients

1 oz	28g	Poblano chile (medium)
2 teaspoons	10ml	Canola oil
1 teaspoon	5ml	Onion - finely chopped (medium)
2 cups	320g / 11oz	Cooked black beans - plus
3 tablespoons	45ml	Of their cooking liquid
		Salt - to taste
		Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
1 tablespoon	15ml	Chopped fresh cilantro

Recipe Instructions

Roast poblano directly over a gas flame or under the broiler as close to the heat as possible, turning frequently, until charred all over. Transfer to a paper bag; close the top, and let steam for 10 minutes. Scrape off the skin and discard the core, seeds and ribs, and finely chop.

Heat the oil in a medium nonstick skillet. Add the onion and cook over moderately-high heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes.

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the beans and their liquid. Using a wooden spoon, stir and mash the beans to a rough puree. Add the poblano and stir until the beans are heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Transfer the beans to a serving dish and sprinkle with cilantro.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
