Directions

  1. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a sauté pan.  Add onions and oregano, and cook until the onions are translucent and turning brown, about 5 minutes.  Add in the cumin and cayenne and cook for 1 minute.
  2. Add the black beans and cook for 3 minutes.  Remove from heat and puree the mixture until desired smoothness is reached.  Add in water or bean broth a teaspoon at a time if the dip is too stiff.  Stir in salt and lime juice.  Adjust for seasoning and serve warm or at room temperature with Baked Tortilla Chips.
