  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>The best black beans I have ever had were at &#8220;Aca Los Tacos&#8221; in a side street taco stand in Cancun in the late 80&#8217;s (it is probably squashed by KFC by now).  In the DC area, Lauriol plaza is the best.  These beans don&#8217;t compare, but make an excellent and easy side dish for Mexican or Cuban meals.</p>]]>

  <instructions>
    <![CDATA[<ol>
	<li>Put some Olive oil in a sauce pan and heat (not to smoking), then add clove of garlic and poach by tipping the pan so the oil covers the garlic (poach/boil it for a short bit and turn it every now and then).  (Smash the garlic slightly first and peel of course).</li>
		<li>Add a can of goya black beans (watch for oil splatter) and then a little cumin.</li>
	</ol>


	<p>Once the beans have cooked long enough to get soft, smash with a potato masher and serve.</p>


	<ol>
	<li>
As a variation, you can saute in some onions and play with cumin ratio, but this is simple, fast and good.</li>
