Costa Rican Refried Beans

I made refried beans tonight using Salsa Lizano, which is a Costa Rican sauce similar to Worcestershire. If you don't have salsa lizano, you could add a bit of Worcestershire sauce and a bit more sugar and it would be similar. Or just skip the Salsa Lizano and it'd probably still be very good.

1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cup water
1 onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 tsp chopped fresh cilantro
1 tsp cumin
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil.
2 tablespoons salsa lizano (costa rican sauce)
1 teaspoon sugar

Open can of black beans, drain out the liquid, rinse thoroughly and drain again. Put beans in cuisinart and add one cup of water. Puree beans and water.

Meanwhile, fry onions and garlic in a saucepan w/ oil, cumin, salt and cilantro. When this is browned and ready, add the bean/water mixture into the pot. Add salsa lizano and sugar, and keep over medium heat. Simmer, stirring regularly, until enough water evaporates. You will be left with delicious pureed black refried beans (technically not refried I guess, since they are only fried once, but whatever.....) They tasted just like the beans that I ate this one time in Costa Rica.
