Step by step instruction of cooking Chili mix beans with eggplant

Шаг 1

Before serving, season with chopped green onion and dill. Serve hot. Cold chili some fresh. Bon appetit!

Шаг 2

Soak the beans overnight in water. In the morning drain the water. Pour beans with cold water, bring to boil, cook for 10 minutes on melanom fire. Drain the water. Beans rinsed. Add fresh water. Do not add salt! Otherwise the beans will be hard. Again bring to a boil. To cook under a cover on melanom heat for 30-50 minutes depending on the varieties of beans. Salt to taste and cook another 10 minutes. Of course better not to mix different varieties of beans, because each variety is brewed different times, but I was "ready" compound, so some varieties are a little overcooked.
