Refried beans can be high in fat; instead serve these pinto beans simmered with earthy cumin. Like the slaw, this topping can be served as a side dish, too.
I am thinking that making this with dried beans would be much better. I am going to cook them in my Instant Pot, which is much less time than making them the regular way.
Made to directions, subbing cilantro for parsley because we had it on hand. Liked the cream sauce, nice change. Served with CL's green enchiladas with crab.
The beans are very tasty. It was a hit with my family. I agree with omitting the parsley. My preference with this dish is cilantro.The sour cream is a little thin, but compliments this dish. It is very versatile. I have used it on fish tacos and nachos.
I made as written. The buttermilk in the sour cream sauce gave an odd flavor so will leave it out next time. I think the sour cream with the chipotles and a little lime juice would be much better. The beans were good and will make again as written.
I made this recipe exactly as called out. Sour cream sauce is better if sits overnight. I am putting in cilantro in place of the parsley next time.
