This simple and quick organic Mexican black bean recipe can be enjoyed a variety of ways: nachos, burritos, on toast or simply eaten as is! This dish is full of fibre and protein.
Pre-soak the black turtle beans for 6-8 hours or overnight (this makes the beans more digestible).
Drain the beans well, discarding the water.
Add 6 cups of fresh water to a large saucepan along with the soaked beans.
Simmer the organic beans over gentle heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally and ensuring the water does not run low.
Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan add garlic, onion and oil and cook for 2-3 minutes then add the spices and stir them through.
Add this mixture to the organic beans after the beans have cooked for 1 hour, then add the carrot, capsicum and chilli and stir through well.
Finally, add the tinned tomatoes and partially cover with the lid and continue to simmer over low heat for 30 - 45 mins or until the mixture has thickened.
Stir occasionally to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Serve up and enjoy!
