We had an exchange student years ago from Rio de Janeiro. When wanted to share with us his favorite food from home, he called his mom and got this one.
2 C black beans
6 C water
1/2 lb bacon
1 tbsp salt
Boil until the beans are soft, about four hours.
Saute in a little oil:
1 onion, minced
3 cloves crushed garlic
Take one cup cooked beans, mash, add to the onion and garlic. Add to the remaining beans and simmer for half an hour. Serve over rice.
Common variation in Brasil - lay fried egg/s atop the rice and beans.
