FRIJOLES REFRITOS

     TEXMEX-REFRIED - Tex-Mex style refried beans.

     You will first need to make a batch of frijoles en olla for
     this recipe.

INGREDIENTS (serves 4-6)
     34 cups   drained cooked pinto beans
               Broth from cooked pinto beans
     2 Tbsp    vegetable oil

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Heat oil in a medium skillet.

          (2)  Add drained cooked pinto beans to the skillet and
               mash up into a paste. (I use an old hand potato
               masher but a perforated metal cooking spoon also
               works well).

          (3)  Saut' the beans over medium heat for about 5
               minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning
               and adding a little bean broth as necessary for
               proper consistency.  The finished beans should be
               like thick library paste in texture.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 10 minutes, plus cooking time of
     frijoles en olla.  Precision: no need to measure.
