Bean sauce

Directions

1. Cleanse the beans, then put them in a pot of water. Cook for about 1h30. When they are tender (the point of becoming porridge), turn off the heat.

2. Remove ¾ of the beans and leave the rest in the cooking water. Reduce the ¾ in a blender to a puree. Add 4 cups of warm water to the puree.

3. Stir well and pass through a sieve. Add the resulted liquid to the cooking water and dispose of waste.

4. Reignite the fire and add salt, pepper, cloves, garlic, parsley, peeled plantain and pepper.

5. In a skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil, add the ham and shallots. Let cook for 5 minutes and pour in the beans. Reduce heat, simmer about 45 minutes.
