Step 1
Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Soak the beans in advance for 6–12 hours. Then cook them until done. Each type of beans requires different cooking time. Black beans are ideal, but I couldn't find any, so I used white beans instead. Cook the beans for as long as needed until they are thoroughly soft.
