Cooking Instructions
- 1
Clean the beans, removing stones, sticks, etc. Then wash them well by rubbing them against each other under running water, and soak them overnight.
- 2
Cook them in your pressure cooker for 35 minutes or as directed by your cooker, ensuring the water covers the beans. Let the internal control valve release, which you can do under running water.
- 3
Once the valve releases, you can open the pressure cooker and check the beans; they should be almost al dente. Add two tablespoons of salt and boil for an additional 10-15 minutes.
- 4
You can serve the freshly cooked beans with chopped tomatoes and onions, cheese, or cream to taste, alongside grilled meat, chorizo, or a good piece of pork rind. You can let them cool, divide into portions, and freeze so you always have beans from the pot available for your dishes or to make delicious refried beans.

Beans on rice Beans on rice
Like many people, I have a weak spot for good fried chicken. And from among the major outlets, my favourite is Popeye's. Honestly, though, it's not their delicious chicken alone that puts them over the top; it's their red beans and rice. Something about that little side dish of smushed beans and savoury sauce soaking into fluffy rice just speaks to me. So I decided to make my own. I didn't try to make an exact copy, and mine's also a little less watery than theirs (my only nitpick). But I think it came out just as delicious and comforting at the end.
