Cuban Black Beans (Frijoles Negros)

Silky, savory black beans simmered with a sofrito of onion, green pepper and garlic, seasoned with cumin, oregano and bay, and brightened at the end with a splash of vinegar. Spoon them over white rice for a simple vegan meal, or serve as a side to roast pork or plantains.
