Recipe Introduction


This is a lighter, vegetarian version of a traditional dish favored by the caballeros (cowboys) of northern Mexico. Chipotle peppers provide a smoky flavor that in the original dish is supplied by bacon.



List of Ingredients




2 tablespoons corn oil
1 white onion, chopped
2 ripe tomatoes, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups pinto beans, soaked overnight and drained
1 12-ounce bottle dark beer, such as Negro Modelo
4 cups vegetable stock
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, diced
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Fresh cilantro, for garnish


Recipe



1. Heat oil in a large, deep skillet; add onions and cook until translucent. Add tomatoes and garlic; cook until garlic begins to brown.

2. Add presoaked beans, beer, vegetable stock, cinnamon and chipotle peppers. Simmer for 1 hour or until beans are tender, adding more stock as necessary. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Serves 6.
