Cook’s Notes This recipe starts with dried beans. If you’re pressed for time, you can quick-soak the beans instead of letting them stand overnight. Cover the beans with water by three inches in a large pot, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let the beans stand for one hour before draining them, and proceed with step 1.

Ingredients
- 1 pound dried pinto beans, soaked overnight in cold water, rinsed, and drained 1/2 medium white onion 1 head garlic, halved crosswise 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 smoked ham hock (about 4 ounces) 2 jalapeno chiles, halved lengthwise (optional) 1 tablespoon coarse salt 2 teaspoons paprika 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Directions
Combine soaked beans, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, and ham hock, and jalapenos if desired, in a heavy 6-quart pot, and cover with water by 3 inches. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until beans are tender, adding more water if needed to keep beans covered, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Remove onion, garlic, and jalapenos from pot; discard. Remove ham hock, and reserve for another use. Ladle out cooking liquid and reserve, until it covers beans by only 1/4 inch. Add salt, paprika, and pepper. Using a potato masher, mash beans into a coarse puree, adding reserved liquid if desired.

Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 02/15/2014 Martha, you are my secret love. This recipe simply adds more proof of this. :) Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 08/28/2013 ooh lordy! dem beans is goooood! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 03/21/2012 OMG! I am never going to buy Refried Beans in a can again. These are the best! Had to tone down the jalapeno by taking out seeds and membranes as children were going to be eating these also. And leaving 1/4 inch of liquid after ladling out of the cooked beans was way too much! Made more of a soup (which was great also) so made them again and ladled the cooking liquid to slightly below the top of the cooked beans. Yummy!!!Martha Stewart Member
