Beans is one of my absolute favorite things to eat,I could eat it for breakfast,lunch and supper.

Ingredients

• Cleaned Black eyed or brown beans – 2 cups
• 1 medium onion (chopped)
• Palm oil – 4 Tablespoons
• Dried pepper powder- 1-2 tablespoon
• Maggi – 2 cubes (bouillon cube)
• Salt – to taste

Directions

• Set a medium size pot on high heat, add in 5 cups of water and bring to a boil.
• Add in the onion and beans.
• Reduce the heat to medium, let the beans cook for 1.5 hours (add more water during cooking if needed)
• When water is almost dried up; add in the pepper, maggi, salt and palm oil.
• Simmer on low heat for another 30 minutes.
• Serve with plantain, bread, garri or your choice of side

Note:
– If you are soaking the beans prior to cooking, you will only have to cook it for 1 hour
– Back home, we used blended pepper not dried pepper. Either one works
