Refried beans started from dry beans. Chicken is leftover rotisserie chicken. Headed to the tienda for a ripe avocado without waiting for days. Cost per person $4.40 without the chicken it would have been $3 and vegetarian. Margarita not included. That’s $1.80.
I made a bean masher for making refried beans. Cherry and walnut scraps were used and it was given 5 coats of food grade finish.
And you can’t really see much but I made the cutting boards this was served on. But that was ages ago. The bean masher is new.
It’s amazing how refried beans manages to walk the line of looking like liquid diarrhea whilst still being jealous for them.
It looks awesome, good use of wood scraps too!
They definitely don’t photograph well.
This is how I feel about most Indian dishes I try to make
