Pinto Beans ~ Instant Pot
Ingredients::
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 bunch cilantro (or parsley), stems and leaves divided and chopped
1⁄4 tsp chipotle powder
1/2 tsp cumin
2 cups dry borlotti, pinto or kidney beans, soaked
2 cups water
1 tsp salt
Directions:
1 onion, chopped
1 bunch cilantro (or parsley), stems and leaves divided and chopped
1⁄4 tsp chipotle powder
1/2 tsp cumin
2 cups dry borlotti, pinto or kidney beans, soaked
2 cups water
1 tsp salt
Directions:
Press [Saute] to pre-heat the cooker. When the words “Hot” appear on the display add the oil and saute the onion, cilantro stems, chipotle and cumin until the onions just begin to soften. Add the beans and water.
Close and lock the lid of the Instant Pot. Press [Manual] and then use the [+] or [-] button to choose 10 minutes pressure cooking time.
When time is up, open the cooker using Natural Pressure Release.
Remove a heaping spoonful of beans (for garnish) and sprinkle the rest in the cooker with salt, and mash using a potato masher to the desired consistency.
Serve sprinkled with whole beans, parsley and an optional dollop of sour cream. Serves 6-8.
INSTANT TIP: Forget to soak beans?
Get the same benefits of an overnight soak (less gas and better looking beans) by quickly pre-cooking the beans.
Put rinsed dry beans in the Instant Pot. For each cup of beans add four of water and one tsp of salt. Pressure cook in manual mode for 4 minutes and then do not open until the "keep warm" timer has reached 10 minutes. Strain and rinse the beans (discard the liquid). They may look a little wrinkled but can be used in recipes calling for "soaked" beans.
