Vegetarian Refried Beans

Vegetarian Refried Beans

Place the beans in a large saucepan, and cover with an inch of
water. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. When the beans
have come to a boil, drain, and return them to the same pot. Cover
the beans with 2 inches of water, and stir in 1 tablespoon of garlic,
the tomato, cumin, and chili powder. Bring to a boil over high heat,
then reduce heat to low, and simmer until the beans are very soft,
about 3 hours and 45 minutes, adding water as needed.
Once the beans have cooked, mash them with the remaining
tablespoon of garlic, the oil, and salt to taste; use additional water
as needed to achieve desired consistency. Place over low heat for
30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve.
