Recipe for "texmex-refried"

NAME

     TEXMEX-REFRIED - Tex-Mex style refried beans.
     You will first need to make a batch of frijoles en olla  for
     this recipe.

INGREDIENTS (serves 4-6)

     1 kg      drained cooked pinto beans
               Broth from cooked pinto beans
     30 ml     vegetable oil

PROCEDURE

          (1)  Heat oil in a medium skillet.
          (2)  Add drained cooked pinto beans to the skillet  and
               mash  up  into  a paste. (I use an old hand potato
               masher but a perforated metal cooking  spoon  also
               works well).
          (3)  Saute the beans  over  medium  heat  for  about  5
               minutes,  stirring  frequently  to prevent burning
               and adding a little bean broth  as  necessary  for
               proper  consistency.  The finished beans should be
               like thick library paste in texture.

RATING

     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 10 minutes, plus  cooking  time  of
     frijoles en olla.  Precision: no need to measure.
