    Yes! You can cool, strain, and store it in its original container and reuse up to 2 more times. I don't recommend using oil for frying more than 3 times because every time you heat it, it breaks down a little more and the smoke point decreases.

    I used home cooked ones. I usually cook a pound at a time and then freeze them in 1 or 2-cup containers with the liquid covering them. So as long as I remember to thaw them, I can have yummy beans whenever I want!

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    Wonderful! I'm so happy to hear that! My good friend ex-patriated to New Zealand from Texas (she fell in love with a Kiwi and now they have two adorable boys) and she has said the same thing about the Tex-Mex and Mexican food there.

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    Yep! That would work. Try to leave some of the liquid from the chili behind in the can, though. Don't want the filling too wet or it will be hard to wrap them up.

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    Yay! The folding takes a little practice, and I usually over stuff them which makes it even harder, but they are always yummy!

    these taste amazing i use egyptian style fava beans instead of refried beans thank you so much for sharing. YUM.

    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    This sounds very interesting! I like fried eggplant and I love mustard, so I can imagine them together. Where did you eat this fascinating dish?

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    Yay! Hope you try it with the mushrooms. I was an honest-to-god mushroom hater until recently and these were awesome!

    It's a Kitchenaid. It came with my immersion blender. I love it!

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    The texture is what I really couldn't stand, but I find that if I cook them really well and get them a little browned and caramelized, with plenty of salt and garlic, I like them a lot!

    I got it at a big Asian market here. Runs on butane canisters. The sticker says "Gourmet chef model #b-0029" Maybe you can find it online. I really like it. It was only about 20 bucks, too.

  • @Bar10der82
    @Bar10der82 11 років тому

    I, too, have had an uncertain past with mushrooms, but I think we just reconciled now that I've seen this recipe. Thank you, Hilah, for being champion of both fried things and green things! Yum!

    @AvoidingChores 11 років тому

    yay! i tried it! I didn't burn the house down but those still hot for a while! I did a little mod by adding some chicken. my folding skills are not perfect, but they were tasty!

  • @hilahcooking

    Yes!

    Your expression when you took the lid off the mushrooms at 1:48... Priceless.

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    You can either cool it and strain it back into the bottle to reuse up to 2 more times, or cool and pour into a doubled-up plastic grocery bag and put into the trash.

  • @hilahcooking
    @hilahcooking  11 років тому

    I will do that in the fall!

  • @naytee4507
    @naytee4507 11 років тому

    Because of you, I'm "tempted" to try portobello mushrooms. I don't like mushrooms because of the texture, but maybe I'll give them a try. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos.

    I like the hot plate you're using. Offers a better camera angle for what's going on in the skillet. Where did you get it? Who makes it?

  • @Earendilgrey
    @Earendilgrey 11 років тому

    I am going to have to do this. May try rice in place of beans since I am not fond of them. But this sounds like it would be awesome with some Spanish rice in the place of beans.

  • @julieardern7417
    @julieardern7417 10 років тому +1

    wow these look so tasty i will make them today for my family,but maybe swap refried beans for rice as i dont have beans.ty for sharing. :)

    I know you probably don't want me replying, but samosas are traditionally made with an all purpose flour shell. She stuffed a tortilla and fried, and the flour tortillas would not give the same effect as the traditional samosa shell. However, if you are looking for a good pre-made shell, try use spring roll wrappers. You can fill it with the potato filling and fry it. They work well, and taste like the cocktail samosas you might eat as an appetizer.

    Hi Sylvia! A friend gave it to me, so I don't know the answer! But I bet you could call a spice shop or a store that sells essential oils and perfumes and things like that to find one. :)

    Dude, I'm obsessed now with your famous little salt shaker with the cork top! Using my huge blue Morton salt is too cumbersome, and using regular table salt shaker with twisty top is too much work to un-twist! (too much work) So I'm loving your cork top shaker. Where did you get yours? :)

  • @hilahcooking

    A cube of bread or a bit of scallion green will turn brown in one minute at 365 degrees F. I did this for years but still had mixed results over time.
    Your best bet is to buy a thermometer. They're not expensive, and the first time you use it you'll probably have a similar reaction to mine: "Why didn't I do this years ago?".

    Matthew Espinal had requested 2 days ago a few different things for you to make. When I saw FRIED SHRIMP PO BOYS, I had a flash back from summer of 2005 when we went to New Orleans. I tried a PO BOY for the first time and they were AWESOME! I would appreciate you showing how to make them, Please 😀

    Hi. I had this wonderful fried eggplant with mustard sauce. Taste almost like chicken but very tender it was an amazing dish. I wondered if you have any experience with eggplant or sweet mustard sauces. That would totally be awesome. Thanks.
