Ewa Agoyin — Beans mashed soft under a sauce of onions burnt on purpose

The sauce is the dish. Onions and dried pepper cooked in palm oil far past the point that looks correct — almost black, sweet rather than bitter. It takes forty minutes and cannot be rushed.

Method

  1. Cook the beans past tender

    75–90 minutes until they collapse under a spoon. Salt only in the last 15 minutes.
