Savory Mashed Black Beans

submitted by butterflydog

1 Tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
4 - 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 - 2 jalapeno chilies, seeded and chopped
2 cans (15 oz each, 425 g each) black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups (500 ml) vegetable stock (or chicken stock for a non-vegetarian
version)
1 tsp (5 ml) dried oregano
1 tsp (5 ml) ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Chopped cilantro for garnish (optional)
Lime wedges for garnish (optional)

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over moderate heat. Add the onions,
garlic, and jalapeno and saute until tender but not brown, about 5
minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Remove from
the heat and mash the beans with a fork until the desired consistency is
reached. Serve garnished with chopped cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
Serves 4 to 6.
