Cuban Black Beans - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb dried black beans
1 green bell pepper, chopped
10 cups water
2/3 cup olive oil
1 large onion, minced
1 green bell pepper, minced
4 garlic cloves, pounded
4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon sugar
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons wine
2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

Wash beans.
In a large pot, soak the beans with the first chopped bell pepper in water until swollen. Overnight?.
**It doesn't say so but I'd drain it at this point and add new water so the beans won't be so musical if you know what I mean.**.
Cook until soft about 45 minutes.
Heat oil in a medium pan. Add onion, second bell pepper and garlic and cook until soft.
Add 1 cup of cooked beans and mash them well. Add mixture to bean pot.
Add dry seasonings to the pot.
Cover and boil 1 hour.
Add vinegar and wine.
Cover and simmer 1 hour.
If broth is too watery, uncover and cook until it thickens.
Just before serving stir in the olive oil.
