    List of Ingredients




    Diabetic Frijoles Cocidos


    - 1-3/4 cup dried pinto beans (12 ounces)
    - 1-1/4 cups chopped onion
    - 3 cloves garlic, minced
    - 2 teaspoons ground cumin
    - 1 tablespoon olive oil
    - 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
    - 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
    - 1 teaspoon salt
    - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

    Recipe





    Wash and pick over the beans. Cover them with water and soak
    for 4 hours or overnight; drain.

    Cover the beans with fresh water in a large saucepan. Bring
    to a boil; reduce the heat. Cover and simmer for 1 to 1-1/2
    hours, or until the beans are tender.

    In a medium skillet, saute the onion, garlic, and cumin
    in the oil for 4 minutes. Add the green pepper and saute
    5 minutes longer.

    Drain the beans; reserve 1/2 cup liquid. Mash the beans with
    the reserved liquid; add the sauteed vegetables, the coriander,
    salt, and pepper. Mix well.

    Yield: 4-1/2 cups (6 servings)
