1/2 teaspoon Garlic paste

Directions
Black beans are a staple in Tex-Mex, Central, and South American cuisine. Frijoles refits (refried beans) is a popular dish of cooked and mashed beans that can be enjoyed as a side dish or as a spread. Extremely quick and easy to prepare, you can enjoy it whenever you feel tired of chickpea-based dips and spreads.
To prepare it, cook the beans in melted butter with the herbs and spices (here, we have used canned black beans – if you want to start from scratch, soak the dry beans overnight and add abundant water; the beans will have to cook for at least one hour). Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, and finally mash 3/4 of them with an immersion mixer or a hand masher.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and drizzle with a little olive oil, if desired, and serve. Match it with corn tortillas or with our mixed seed rustic crackers!
