Ingredients

2 cups of canned black beans, drained
1/2 cup maple syrup

  • Rinse beans and drain them.
  • Bring 3 cups of water to a boil and add the beans.
  • Boil for 5 minutes.
  • Drain beans and rinse out the pan.
  • Bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add the beans and maple syrup.
  • Boil for 3 minutes, then add the sugar and soy sauce
  • Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid has reduced to form a thick rich sauce.
  • Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
  • Transfer the cooled beans to a dish and garnish with sesame seeds before serving.
