Ingredients

• haricot beans - 1 tea cup,
• milk - 1 tea cup,
• butter - 2 tea spoons, (or sunflower oil - 1 table spoon),
• mint (fresh or dried) - 1 table spoon,

Procedures

1. Clean and wash the beans and soak in cold water with salt for the night.
2. Then wash them again, put them in a pot, pour cold water and boil them soft (you may throw the first water).
3. Filtrate the beans through a strainer and mash them with a wooden spoon.
4. Mix them with the milk; pour some of the "bouillon" so that the liquid is three fingers above the slashed beans.
5. Put the mint and the red pepper, some salt and boil for another quarter of an hour at a moderate temperature.
