 Print Version |
 Email To A Friend
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 cup pinto beans
- 6 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Soak the beans 8 hours (or more). Rinse well
Put in pressure cooker, add water and salt.
Put on stove top and turn heat to high. Once
pressure cooker is going like a little steam
engine, reduce heat to low for 45 minutes.
That's it!
Barry serves the beans with plenty of the liquid
(almost like a bean soup) and just adds salt
and pepper to taste.
WARNING: My pressure cooker (Presto) advises
against pressure cooking beans (among other
things - pasta, peas etc.) because they can foam
up, block the vent and cause the safety plug to
blow which will make a big mess of your kitchen!
However just for the record, following this
recipe I've never had a problem with my pressure
cooker and the pinto beans are so good I'm
willing to risk cooking them this way (but that's
me). Enjoy!
Preparation time: 45 min.
