Black beans are a fantastic way to spice up many dishes, especially your Spanish dishes . Many people simply don't use black beans because they don't know how to cook with black beans. Instead of purchasing a can of precooked refried beans you can make your very own at home. You will need a manual potato masher for this recipe.

This is how to cook black beans

You will need the following ingredients:
- One can of black beans, rinsed
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 3 tbs. butter
- 1/2 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
