    2 c. (340 g) dry pinto beans
    5 to 6 c. water
    2 tbsp. vegetable oil
    1 onion, chopped
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
    2 tbsp. chili powder
    2 tsp. ground cumin
    1 c. (115 g) chopped fresh tomato

    Recipe



    Rinse beans, place in saucepan and cover with 2 cups (425 ml) water. Remove any blemished or shriveled beans that float to top. Soak beans overnight or bring water to a boil, turn off heat and let beans sit 1 hour. Add enough water to cover beans 1/2 inch (1 1/2 cm) 3 to 4 cups (700 to 950 ml) depending on whether they've been soaked or precooked. Add oil, chopped onion, garlic, jalapeno, chili powder and cumin.

    Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 1/2 to 2 hours until beans are tender. Add tomato, hominy, salt, cilantro and sugar. Cook 30 minutes more, uncovered, until mixture thickens. Serve as a side dish or vegetarian main course.
