I love black beans. I used to cook more and keep in freezer for later used. I can have it as snack. So why not using it in salad? Here comes the easy black bean salad pair with tomatoes.
From Vivian Pang Kitchen Tomato Black Bean Salad Ingredients:
150g cooked black beans
2 tomatoes, cut into small cubes
2 shallots, thinly sliced
1 big chili, thinly sliced
2 bird chilies, thinly sliced
Handful of coriander, cut
~dressing
Juice from 2 limau kasturi
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon soya sauce
Methods:
1. Mix the dressing till sugar dissolve. Set aside.
2. Mix all salad ingredients into mixing bowl. Pour in dressing and toss to combine. Serve!
~Note
I use dried black beans and cook with pressure cooker. Here what I did.
1. Rinse black beans to clean. Then soak dried beans in salt water overnight.
* add ½ to 1 teaspoon salt in water
2. The next day, pour away salt water. Rinse 1-2 times to get rid of salt.
- Put into pressure cooker. Add enough water to cover the beans and cook for about 20 minutes or till soft. *adjust the time according to your pressure cooker
