How to make authentic Mexican refried black beans from scratch?
In fact, the procedure is very simple. To begin, thoroughly clean the black beans to remove any remaining rock. Then soak thoroughly until clean water is obtained. This is a good indication that they are already perfectly clean. After that, boil black beans with water, a piece of onion, a garlic clove, and a pinch of salt. They will be ready when the black beans are soft. When they’re boiling, you’ll need to add water, so keep an eye on them every now and then.
Once they have boiled and cooled, heat the oil in a pan, finely chop an onion, and stir-fry until the onion is perfectly fried. Meanwhile, because authentic Mexican refried black beans must be dried, blend the boiled black beans with a small amount of black bean broth water.
Tip: You can make authentic Mexican refried black beans by smashing them or blending them, but for this traditional Mexican dish, we recommend blending them.

Everything depends on how watery you blend them.
