Try my wife’s Puerto Rican bean recipe:
Warm medium sauce pan on stove top at medium-low temp.
Add a bit of vegetable oil.
Sautee Spanish cooking ham cut in squares.
6 GOYA olives stuffed with pimento, add to ham.
Add four heaping tablespoons of GOYA sofrito.
Add two table spoons of GOYA tomato sauce.
Add 1 can of GOYA pink or red kidney beans (the ones in water, not in tomato sauce), including the water.
Add more water, about 1/4 of can you just used.
Add one tablespoon of olive oil.
Add 1 packet of GOYA sazón.
Add chopped up potatoes or squash, about a cup full.
Add 1 tablespoon of GOYA recaíto (cilantro) or three fressh leaves if you can find them.
Salt to taste.
Let simmer for about 15 minutes.
Serve on top of steamed white rice, all as a side to your favorite meat.
