Pinto Beans For Dinner

Submitted by: admin on April 10, 2020

4 servings

Ingredients

1 pound dry pinto beans, sorted and rinsed
8 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon salt
1 sprig fresh marjoram (optional)
Accompaniments:
Diced white or red onion
Hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco® Chipotle Pepper Sauce)
Chopped pickled jalapeno slices
Arugula leaves, cilantro, or slivered cabbage
Diced avocado
Lime wedges
Crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

Put beans in a pressure cooker; add water, oil, salt, and marjoram (if using). Bring to a boil, covered with a lid from another pot, not the pressure cooker lid (you don't want to build up pressure yet). Remove from heat and let beans soak at least 1 hour, or up to 3 hours.

Put on pressure-cooker lid, seal, and bring up to full pressure over high heat. Reduce heat to low, maintaining full pressure, and cook for 12 minutes. Allow pressure to reduce naturally (do not use quick-release method), which takes about 15 minutes.

Transfer beans with a slotted spoon to individual serving bowls, and serve with a drizzle of olive oil (if desired) and desired accompaniments.
