A burrito isn't a burrito without refried beans. Where can I get this TexMex delicacy here in Korea?

Here you go ...

Quote:
This vegetarian version of refried beans is tastier and healthier than traditional ones, which are cooked in lard.

Yield About 2� cups
Time 1� hours (+ bean soaking and cooking)
Tools Wok, Dutch oven, or deep skillet
Wooden spoon
Potato masher or fork

Ingredients 2 c pinto or black beans, soaked/cooked or canned
3 T sesame or olive oil
1 c onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1-2 t cumin
1-2 t salt
1-2 t black pepper, ground

Directions Heat the oil over medium heat, add the onion, and saut� until soft, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and continue saut�ing for another minute or two.

Stir in the beans, spices, and � c of reserved soaking liquid. Mash the beans into the liquid. If they seem too dry, add more liquid. Taste and adjust the spices.

Notes Sesame oil adds a wonderful flavor to refried beans.
Reheat refried beans in a T or two of oil, preferably sesame.

Refried black beans are divine topped with cheddar cheese, sour cream, and red onion.



Make your own hillbilly, plus I know a place that sells old el passo refried beans in a can ... so if you ask real nice ...

I have several cans sitting in the kitchen, but more importantly. . .

The red door in Itaewon.

Hannam Supermarket has a bag of dehydrated refried beans. All you have to do is add a little water and nuke it. Expands to 3x the amount! Good deal and HERE, not mailed or bought for crazy price. --Tembo

Keep on walking. The red door closed down. There might be a new place that opened up kitty corner to 3 Alley pub ~ not certain, though.

On the subject where can you get good black beans for a sane price?
I see things in Korean supermarkets that look almost like the black beans I'm used to but are over 5,000 for a half kilo bag, which is ridiculous...

Are you close to Suwon? Or are you on the northern side of Seoul?
