Refried Beans

2 cans kidney beans or black beans or mixture
1 onion, diced
2-3 tbsp EVO oil
1 tsp Garlic, minced
Splash Red wine
Cumin ground, to taste
Coriander ground, to taste
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste


Dice an onion, mince a clove or 2 of garlic, and set aside. Open 2 cans of beans. Drain and reserve juices. In a colander, wash the beans, and place in a bowl. With a potato masher, thoroughly mash the beans. Now add some of the reserved juices to the bean mixture until a desired consistency is formed. Add all of the spices to the mixture. In a large enough frying pan, heat 2-3 tbsp of EVO oil, and add the onions. Wait until they are clarified and add the minced garlic, or roasted garlic can be added at anytime. Add a splash of Red Wine and reduce a bit. Immediately add the bean mixture, thoroughly heat, and refried beans are waiting.
