Here is how you make Best Refried Beans Ever:

1. Put beans, water, and bay leaves (and dried pepper(s), if you're using) in a medium-size pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours, or until the beans are soft.2. While beans are cooking. Measure out the spices and salt and mix them together so they are ready to use. Heat oil and butter in a large frying pan and add onion, green pepper, and garlic and saute about 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat, add spice mixture and saute for 2 minutes more, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Remove from heat.3. When beans are done, remove bay leaves (and tough skins if you used dried peppers) and dump everything into a food processor and puree.4. Pour the pureed beans into the pan with the sauteed vegetables. Cook over a low heat until it reaches the consistency you like. The thicker it gets, the closer you watch to avoid burning. I stop when the heated beans act like a mud volcano.5. Cool and eat.6. These freeze extremely well.Serving Size: 12 1/2-cup servingsNumber of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user G3RALD.
