This authentic Cuban-style black beans recipe is a vibrant and nutritious addition to any midweek menu. Known for its deep, savoury flavour profile, the dish relies on a base of sautéed onions, green peppers and plenty of garlic. By mashing a portion of the beans directly into the pan, you create a wonderfully thick, creamy texture that perfectly carries the aromatic oregano and sharp cider vinegar.
As a versatile vegan main or side dish, these beans are excellent when served alongside fluffy white rice or as a filling for soft tortillas. This homemade version is far superior to shop-bought alternatives, offering a comforting and heart-healthy meal that is both budget-friendly and quick to prepare. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime or a scattering of coriander for a bright, seasonal touch.
