Here's an easy and ridiculously yummy Mexican recipe - restaurant-style black beans!


I absolutely love for black beans. I can't get enough of them - check out my collection of vegetarian black bean recipes for lots more black bean ideas! Black beans are small and soft, and they have a gorgeous dark, rich flavour that works perfectly with a bit of spice.


I'll happily put them in just about anything, but for some reason I don't usually serve them on their own. So this time, I decided to let my favourite bean be the star of the show.

There's a restaurant where I live that does the best black beans - slightly spicy, soft and creamy, and ridiculously moreish. I always get them on the side of a burrito, but since they're full of protein, they make a great meal on their own too. I couldn't resist giving them a go myself.


Turns out, they're easy - which is good, because I rarely make things that aren't!
