Steps

1

Dump the beans in a pressure cooker. Put enough water cover beans. Water should be 3-4 inches above the beans. Cook for one hour. Follow the pressure cooker instruction.
2

Soak dry pepper like ancho chilli with 2-3 cups of water. Skip this using powder.
3

Chop onion roughly. Chop garlic and chilli pepper.
4

Start heating a frying pan then add olive oil when the pan is warm. Add chopped onion and cook low heat for 5 minutes then add garlic and chilli and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue caramelize onion another 13 minutes until onion looks light brown.
5

After one hour, turn off heat for pressure cooker and let the pressure reduced. Chop the soaked dry chilli then add it to the onion pan. Add 2 cups water from the dry chilli soaked water.
6

When the pressure cooker is safe to open per manufacture’s instruction, open the lid and drain water from beans using a strainer.
7

Put back the beans back to the pressure cooker pan and roughly mush them. Add the onion/dry pepper to the beans and mix well. Add salt to your taste.
8

Eat as is with Mexican hot sauce or put one over easy egg. Bu’s favorite is making bean and cheese burrito.cheese burrito: place beans and shredded cheese and fold it then microwave for 1 minute. Then heat a pan and brown both sides( this makes taste better rather just microwave.
