Refried Beans

1/2 onion
1 1/2 cups cooked kidney beans
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and pepper

Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onions and stir for two minutes. Add the beans and mash with a potato masher, mix in enough water to achieve a soft consistency, season with salt and pepper. Bring the the boil, cook for a 3 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking.

I decided to make this because I had some kidney beans leftover from making brownies. I think refried beans are traditionally made with pinto beans and slighty spicier but this was still tasty.
