Buenos noches amigos!
Today we are back in Mi Cocinitita for more great traditional Mexican cuisine! Ustedes listan? Vamos!
Orale, tonight your amigo Alejandro is going to show you how to make a simple yet delicious antijo called Frijoles Practicantes. It's a great starter, but you can also serve it as the traditional main course. This dish is a local favorite of los practicantes in the city, as well of course as the native pobres.
And it's one of mi favoritas, tambien!
Unlike many Mexican dishes, this one uses very common ingredients, and I'll bet that even the gringo o gringa at home probably can find these in the pantry!
Ingredientes:
1 can of frijoles negros, frijoles refritos, o frijoles charros. Really, any can of beans will do.
3 salchichas (hot dogs) although you aspiring cocineros in the US may want to to try to find the cheapest hot dogs possible in the dirtiest convenience store in the worst part of town to approximate the empty flavor and spamlike texture of the salchichas Mexicanas.
1/4 cup of crema (sour cream)
Preparacion:
Heat the beans according to the manufacturer's instruction. Many practicantes in the city live without microwaves, but we're going to break the tradition with some modern convenience.
Slice up the salchichas into bite size pieces. Microwave on high for about dos minutos.
Add the sliced salchichas to the frijoles and "float" the sour cream on top by carefully dumping it into the middle of the bowl.
I would typically pair this with a fine lager, usually you want to select a dark larger like Victoria or Modelo Negro to go well with the beans.
Buen Provecho!
