Ingredients

Instructions

1. Rinse the red beans under running water and pick out any broken ones.
2. Put the beans, orange peel and water into an instant pot or pressure cooker. Use the porridge setting on high pressure for 30 minutes.
3. Without a pressure cooker: soak the beans overnight, then add 5 cups of water and simmer over low heat for 2.5 hours.
4. Blend the beans and cooking liquid into a smooth puree, using as little water as the blender needs.
5. Put the puree, sugar, salt, oil and lime juice in a nonstick pot. Stir over medium-low heat for about 20 minutes, until the paste no longer sticks to the pan.
6. Store in a sealed container: one week in the fridge or three months in the freezer.
