Mexicali 2

C made a fabulous pot of refried beans - both for the vegetarians (him and me) and also because you can't have Mexican without the beans!

Refried Beans

2 T vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 small green chilli
3 x 400 g cans red kidney beans, roughly mashed in the food processor

Heat oil in pan. Add onion and garlic and saute until fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook until it begins to soften. Add beans and chilli. Cook for 10 - 20 minutes, stirring every now and then. Adjust flavors if necessary.
