Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make lobio in a slow cooker? Start by soaking the beans overnight. Rinse it and pour boiling water over it. Note that the beans swell and increase in size. To do this, take a deep bowl (1.5 - 2 liters.)
Step 2:
In the morning, drain the remaining water in the bowl, rinse the beans.
Step 3:
Chop a large onion head finely.
Step 4:
In the "Frying" mode, fry the onion in vegetable oil (1-2 tbsp.l.) until golden brown.
Step 5:
Pour the beans into the bowl of a slow cooker, pour water 1 cm above the beans. Put the bay leaf. It is more correct to remove the fried onion from the bowl beforehand, but I cook the beans with it.
Step 6:
Close the lid, set the program "Soup/Stewing" for 1 hour 30 minutes.
Step 7:
Before the end of this time, cut 6 cloves of garlic, not very finely, and a bunch of greens (cilantro + parsley). Take tomato paste (100 g). I don't use tomato paste. In the summer I preserve ground tomatoes. For this dish I take 250 ml of tomato puree.
Step 8:
When the program is over, add garlic, herbs, tomato (paste or puree) to the beans. If the fried onion was removed before cooking the beans, now it must also be put. Add spices, except red pepper, salt (1 tsp is enough for me), sugar, mix. Close the lid, set the time to 1 hour again in the same mode.
Step 9:
After an hour, check the readiness of the beans. It should be soft, well-cooked. If there is a lot of liquid in the bowl, remove the valve on the lid of the slow cooker and cook for 20-30 minutes in the Baking mode. You can evaporate the liquid with the lid open in the "Frying" mode. Be sure to make sure that it does not burn, stir occasionally. At the end of cooking, add 0.5 tsp of red pepper.After completing the program, turn off the slow cooker and let the dish brew for 20-30 minutes.
Step 10:
Transfer to a separate bowl. When serving, you can sprinkle with ground walnuts.
The portion turns out to be large. If you are cooking for the first time, I advise you to make 1/2 servings to take into account all the nuances to your taste: the amount of salt, spices, water. There are many recipes for lobio. It is prepared both liquid and in the form of mashed potatoes, and with the preservation of whole beans. In the presented recipe, against the background of a puree-like consistency, the bulk of the beans retains its shape, but have a very tender pulp. In any form, this is a spicy dish.
Keep in mind that the cooking time and mode are indicated approximately in the recipe. All slow cookers work differently and even the same models of the same manufacturer may have their own characteristics. Before you start cooking a new dish for you in a slow cooker, carefully study the instructions for it, and then in practice try to cook first familiar dishes, and then new ones, choosing the mode and time individually for your own technique.
Tomato paste in this recipe can be replaced with tomatoes in their own juice, fresh tomatoes or ketchup.
Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).
