Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the vegetables

    Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the onion and garlic

    In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it begins to soften. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 3

    Add the beans

    Pour in the canned black beans (drained and rinsed) and stir to combine with the onion and garlic mixture.

  3. 4

    Season the beans

    Add the cumin, salt, and black pepper to the beans. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

  4. 5

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the beans simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until heated through.

  5. 6

    Finish with herbs

    Remove the saucepan from heat, stir in the fresh cilantro and lime juice. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
