Refried Bayo Beans or Mayocoba Beans

Olivia Lopez, Cooks Without Borders Mexican cooking expert, taught us this quick way to make fabulous vegan refried beans. First, make a pot of Bayo Beans (Frijoles de Olla). If the dried beans were fresh, they should be ready to use in the recipe about an hour after you bring them to the boil, longer if they’re not as fresh. You’ll use some of the beans and some of the liquid in this recipe; save the rest to eat on their own.
