Ingredients
2 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tsp cumin powder
1 400g can Lodi Black Beans
½ cup Tomato Sauce
fresh cilantro
Method
1. Heat a sauce pan on medium heat on the stove with the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the cumin and garlic to bloom the flavors and stir until they become fragrant (about 30-60 seconds). Blooming means to gently fry in oil, and it deepens the flavor of spices.
2. Add the black beans, tomato sauce and cilantro to the sauce pan and stir everything together.
3. Turn the temperature down to medium-low and allow the mixture to simmer for about 30-40 minutes or until your desired thickness. Add more cilantro if desired.
