1 clove garlic, minced
pinch of sugar
1 pkg Sazon Goya seasoning (or combination of dried spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, basil, salt, pepper)
1 T olive oil
Heat the oil. Add 'sofrito' (onion, garlic, tomato sauce, sazon, sugar), and stir briefly. Add beans with liquid. Simmer 10-15 minutes. For dryer beans, drain off some of the liquid before adding can of beans.
