Ingredients

Method

  1. Wash beans and let hydrate overnight by covering with twice its volume of water.
  2. The next day, remove any floating beans.
  3. Heat the oil in a pressure cooker. Add scallions and let fry until they start to brown. Add tomato, cumin, broth cube, and allspice. This is called "hogao", a basic sauce for many Colombian dishes.
  4. Add 6 cups water, the beans, and plantain. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  5. Cover the pressure cooker, and let cook for 30 minutes.
  6. Let cool, then open the pressure cooker.
  7. Check water level, add the meat if using, and cover again. Cook for another 30 minutes.
  8. Taste for salt. If you want a thicker mixture, you can cook uncovered over low heat.
