I make my beans in my Insta-pot but I didn't always have one of these so a medium sauce pan is just fine.
Remember to set your insta-pot on sauté to cook your onion, garlic and seasonings, you can then set it to pressure cook on medium.
If you're using a sauce pan make sure you start off on medium heat and then change to a simmer.
I also love using dried beans, you just have to let them soak over night.
Take a medium size bowl add the beans and cover with cold water. I let them sit out on my counter overnight, I don't put them in the fridge.
In the morning I give them a good rinse and thats when I put them in the fridge until Im ready to cook them which will be that evening or the next day if Im prepping for the week.
Ingredients:
2 cans of red kidney beans, I used Simple Organics because they are low in carbs
1/4 cup white onions, chopped
5 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 cup crushed tomatoes
1 /2 teaspoon, garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon, onion powder
1/2 teaspoon, cumin
1/2 teaspoon, oregano
1/2 teaspoon, sea salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed black pepper
1/4 cup sofrito, you can buy it from the grocery store but why when you can make your own with good ingredients - click here for recipe
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions:
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to your insta pot or a medium size saucepan. If you're using an Instant make sure you're on sauté.
Once the pot is hot add your onions and cook for 2/3 minutes then add in your garlic and cook for another 1/2 minutes.
Now add in all your dry seasonings - garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, oregano, salt & pepper and stir for about 1 minute or so to get those spices combined.
Add in the sofrito and cook for 2/3 minutes then add in your crushed tomatoes and beans.
Give it a good stir and set your Instant Pot to pressure cook on medium for 10 minutes.
If you're making it in a regular sauce pan cover and reduce heat to a simmer and let cook for 30 minutes.
