    List of Ingredients




    Big Easy Spiced Red Beans

    1 cup red beans soaked as directed
    16 cilantro stems
    2 1 inch cinnamon sticks
    2 sm cloves garlic finely chopped
    1 tsp chili powder
    1/2 tsp salt

    Recipe
    * Soak the beans in water for 1 hour then drain. In a small pan, cover the beans with 2 inches of water.

    * Tie the cilantro stems and cinnamon sticks together with kitchen string. Add the bouquet to the beans.

    * Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 2 hours, adding more water as necessary.

    * The beans should be covered with at least a half-inch of water at all times while cooking.

    * When the beans are tender, remove about half of the beans and, using a fork, mash them with some of the water, enough to make a smooth paste.

    * Add the mashed beans , garlic, chili powder, and salt to the whole beans.

    * Continue to cook until the mixture is thick and creamy, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Pour onto a large plate to cool.
