You may be asking yourself what are frijoles? Frijoles (pronounced free·ho·lez) is Spanish for beans and most often is used to describe Refried Beans. Beans are an integral part of Mexican cuisine and there’s always a pot of beans bubbling away in the house. Frijoles are a great little dish as either a Mexican side, a delicious layer in a burrito, wrapped up in warm soft tortillas or for some serious snacking as a dip with Tortilla Chips perfect for when you are in front of a film or enjoying board games. Our frijoles recipe uses our Cantina Beans which are authentic black beans that have been simmered in in onion and garlic so you are able to put this dish together in only a few minutes rather than spending hours slowly simmering away. There’s no reason why you can’t play with the toppings either. All you need to complete the picture are some Tortilla Chips or raw vegetables for dipping. Another alternative to frijoles is our Refried Beans are a great time saver. We slowly simmer Pinto Beans with smoky Chipotle chillies, Red Peppers and Mexican spices for restaurant-style Refried Beans. Add some cooked chorizo, top with sour cream and serve with Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips.
