Just LOVED your recipes for the refried beans and the salsa….. The refried beans recipe is MUCH better than the one I have been making for years… The salsa recipe is very timely for me since Costco has discontinued the mango salsa I have been buying for my breakfast every morning…. Now I can make my own & of course, I will add mango to your salsa recipe – it tastes really good with mangoes (Costco also added peaches to it)…..
Great receipe, how long can this be stored? Was thinking good if we can make a batch of it and store for a long time.
Apart from it, would be great if you can include some tips on correcting salt or sugar in veggies/dals, somehow my measurement always goes wrong especially when I am having some guests! I have known people using mashed potatoes, or all purpose flour but would be good if you can include some “Correcting” tips on Tips Tuesday..

Another recommendation is to replace green chillies with pickled jalapenos. This will provide the heat and this will replace the lime juice also.
I hope your next recipe is for Spanish or Mexican Rice. I would love to see your version.
Thanks.

I usually make many recipes from your website. But the salsa and refries bean recipes really helpful.
I would request you to make more Mexican recipes like enchiladas, burrito, or the rice. I tried to make enchilada once but did not turn out very good.
So looking forward to more Mexican recipes.

Hi Hetal & Anuja,

Hi Namrata,
They keep in the fridge for about a week. They also freeze very well. Just defrost and reheat again when you’re ready to use.
