Refried Beans

https://www.chat-quiberon.com/2024/01/18/cjk91fu So, what’s so good about these refried beans?

What’s so good about these refried beans? Well, they are homemade.

When I was on a girl’s trip last September we had lunch one day at Rancho De Chimayo in Chimayo, NM. This restaurant won a James Beard award in 2016 so I knew when I read that and we were going to Chimayo we had to eat there.

https://mmopage.com/news/ihovxbss We had lunch before visiting the historic village of chimayo which dates back to 17th century and that’s where I first bought blue corn cornmeal that I made these Blue Corn Muffins. I also picked up some freshly ground Hatch green chili powder and green chili flakes which I had never seen in our stores.

Some of the rooms have exposed adobe walls and since 1965 they have been serving delicious authentic Mexican food. They also have outside dinging in courtyard like setting with flowers around. It was beautiful when we were there. We sat on the glassed in porch and it was a very nice lunch to enjoy with forever friends.

https://fireheartmusic.com/lkk6n5qym Don’t ask me why I was so impressed with this plate of beans (see picture below). But, even here in Texas, when you are served refried beans they are a blob of pureed mush that doesn’t resemble a bean at all and don’t even get me started about the stuff you scrape out of a can. Going into the restaurant I knew that they had won a James Beard award so I guess from the beginning I was expecting beautiful food. No chips on the table to fill you up before your meal arrived, I liked that.

Refried beans is a perfect side dish for any Mexican meal. They are healthy and full of fiber. I did them my second time to go with my Peruvian Grilled Chicken, some Elote (Mexican street corn), rainbow slaw and my Jalapeño Popcorn Muffins. And, for dessert I made Ina Garten’s Rum Panna Cotta with caramel sauce.

https://www.prehistoricsoul.com/zwzswnnn2 This beautiful plate is from Rancho Chimayo. My beans don’t look as red as hers but mine were delicious. No chips and salsa on the table to ruin my meal so I enjoyed every bite of this lunch. Their beans seem a little more chopped than mine. I did grab my avocado masher instead of the potato masher which has smaller holes (I’ll use that the next time I make these.).
