Buttery Mayocoba Beans
I love the taste of the mayocoba beans, they are buttery and delicate. In Mexico are called frijoles canarios. This type of bean is very good for mashing and serve as a dip, for quesadillas, tostadas or sopes. And for making refried beans for your upcoming parrilladas.
Ingredients
- 1 bag of mayocoba or canario beans 2 pounds
- 6 cups of water
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 1 large garlic
- 1/2 white onion
Instructions
- Clean the beans with running water and add them to the pressure cooker.
- Add the water, the salt, garlic and onion.
- Close the pressure cooker and follow safety measures to avoid the pot to cause an injury.
- Cook the beans for 40 minutes.
- Serve the beans on a bowl and garnish with cotija cheese.
Notes
Please read instructions on how to use your pressure cooker correctly before cooking. Pressure cookers are a fabulous tool when cooking but you need to be careful and follow safety measures to avoid an injury.
Mayocoba beans can be mashed or refried. Use a masher and add some cooking oil. Refried beans will be ready in less than 10 minutes.
You can also freeze the mayocoba beans for later enjoyment as this recipe makes around 20 cups.
