The BEST Pressure Cooker Refried Beans with Onion, Garlic, and Chiles
By Betty2534
Put beans in pressure cooker with enough water to cover by about 2 inches
- 2 cups dried pinto beans (No need to soak the beans, but beans that are fresher will cook more quickly. If your beans have been sitting on the shelf for a while, add 5-10 minutes cooking time.)
- 1 T + 2 T olive oil (Or use lard, bacon grease, or any other fat you prefer for frying the beans.)
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 2 T minced garlic (garlic from a jar is fine for this)
- 1 can (4 oz.) diced green chiles
- (I used Anaheim chiles, called green chiles in U.S. stores, but you can use hotter chiles if you prefer.)
- 1 tsp. salt
- grated cheese, for serving (I used Four Cheese Mexican blend, which is a mix of cheeses)
- thinly sliced green onions, for serving
