Mexican Bean Stew

[Guest guest]

I made this last night and before posting it I checked the files to see if it

was already there and I didn't see it. So, I've decided to share this recipe

because we really enjoyed it.

Mexican Bean Stew

 

Ingredients:

1 cup dried pinto beans

1 cup dry black beans

1 cup dry garbanzo beans

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 onion, diced

4 cloves garlic, crushed 1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

2 cups fresh corn kernels

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

salt and pepper to taste

cayenne pepper to taste

 

Directions:

1. Rinse and sort pinto beans, black beans and garbanzo beans. Place in a large

bowl and cover with water. Soak overnight.

2. Drain beans and place in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil and

cook for 1 hour, or until beans are tender. It may be necessary to add more

water during cooking to prevent drying out or scorching.

3. Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic

until onion is transparent. Stir in cumin. To the beans add the onions, garlic

and crushed tomatoes. Simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in corn and cinnamon; cook 15

minutes more. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne to taste before serving.
