List of Ingredients
1 pound dried pinto beans, sorted, rinsed
15 cups water, divided
1 cup chopped lean ham (about 5 ounces)
1 large onion, chopped
1 can (4-1/2 ounces) chopped green chilies
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Recipe
Combine beans, 10 cups water, ham, and onion in a stockpot; cover and heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add remaining ingredients, including remaining 5 cups water, and simmer, covered, 30 minutes or until beans are tender, stirring occasionally. If a thicker "soup" is desired, mash some of the beans with a spoon during this last 30 minutes of cooking.
