Ingredients
* 1 can pinto beans, rinsed * 1 medium onion, chopped * pinch black pepper * 1 tsp chili powder (or to taste) * 1 tsp curry powder * 1 tsp oregano * 1 1/2 tsp olive oil
Directions
Rinse the beans, unless you like 'em real salty.

Add the olive oil to a pan over medium high heat. When hot, add the onion. Brown the onion. Add the spices, lower the heat to medium, cook until fragrant. Add the rinsed beans, then 1/2 cup water. Cook down until the liquid is gravy-like.

This made two servings for me. Serve over cooked rice. (Serves 2)

    Very tasted! I used cumin instead of curry and dried pintos that I had soaked and cooked. I also added some green peppers when I was cooking the onions. I will add this to my recipe box and make again and again. Thanks for sharing! - 4/11/11
