Preparation method:
To cook faster, soak the beans the night before and cook with 5 cups of water for 10 minutes.
In a pressure cooker, add 1 cup of CAMIL black beans, 6 cups of water, and 1 bay leaf.
Close the lid and cook for 25 minutes, counting from the moment pressure begins.
Turn off the heat and wait for all the pressure to release before opening. Set aside.
In another pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat and sauté 1 small chopped onion and 2 chopped garlic cloves, or the seasoning of your choice.
Add 1 ladle of cooked CAMIL black beans and mash the beans with the back of the ladle.
Then, add the remaining cooked CAMIL black beans and 1 teaspoon of salt. Cook for 10 minutes or until the broth thickens.
