I use a pressure cooker. Once its boiled for 5 minutes, switch off the gas and let the pressure do the rest.

Chijeep:
Ever since the price of cooking gas and even kerosene and charcoal skyrocketed many Nigerians have dumped beans cooking but instead opted for buying cooked beans from vendors because of the high consumption of the fuel used in preparation of it.
But thank God for this brief method that help in saving gas efficiently.


Let me share with you how it works so that you too can also give it a try...

Picture1 shows how it starts:- You rinse your beans and pour it in your pot with water and add adequate salt and lit it on your gas.

Picture2 shows that the beans is boiling on the gas and then after you turn off your gas and leave the beans in the boiling water for some minutes.

picture3 after leaving the beans for some minutes and the boiling water is becoming warm then you on your gas again and allow it to bring again for about 5min and then you off your gas again.

Picture4 is that last stage as you can see the beans is already done and ready to consume but if you wish to cook it as porridge you can add all the necessary ingredients and cook till completely done
There's no disadvantage in preparing your beans this way but you will have to be close to keep watch and save your gas so that it will give you the most preferable result

THANKS AND I HOPE YOU GIVE IT A TRY

aieromon:
Are you for real? I pressure cook my beans for at least 40 minutes

budaatum:
Your pressure cooker might not be as pressured as mine.

It continues cooking for about 30 minutes after you switch the gas off.

HeatSeeker:
You do your research.

lebron7:
Water leeches water soluble minerals in all things, but is an inconsequential amount compared to what is in beans !
You're incorrect

We are not talking about water here, but salt.

NaCl included in the process of boiling inactivates most of the nutrients in beans.

You have done no research to counter my assertions.

tobenuel:
Nah op you not a real nigga. that beans gonna purge someone

As a real Anambra man wey i be, i wash my beans and put on the fire, once it boils, I drain the water out, boil again and drain out the water for the second count. then I put back in the pot, add water, throw a spoon or two into the pot of beans, and slice some onions into it. and then before Aston Villa will finish beating Man city in the first half, the beans ready to serve.


Nothing sweet pass beans wey dem warm

lebron7:
Tell me the chemistry behind that

Olayinka8793:
you drain your beans twice? Is there a reason for it that is better than draining it once? Cos na once me dey drain my beans and I might start draining twice like you if you give me good reason

Ouchbabe:
I stand to be corrected, parboiling is not optional. It is necessary to reduce the amount of chemical preservatives used on the beans

NJV:
@OP all this on and off is not necessary. For much better results, learn to use baking soda to boil your beans. It helps your beans cook really fast and solves the problem of farting after consumption. It's actually a healthier option to the traditional potash ( "Kaun" ) that we saw our parents use while growing up.

Also note the following:
1) wash your beans first with salt and hot water as that helps to remove harmful chemicals added during storage. Do this immediately after picking your beans, before you put it on fire.

2) Parboiling is very essential.

3) You don't start boiling beans with salt immediately. You add salt much later in the process.

Curious345:
It is risky


The pressure cooker can explode ; have an impact on the gas cooker And explode the camping gas too

tobenuel:
It aids to soften the beans. like a catalyst

Love800:
After washing your beans with hot water, why parboil again?

Chijeep:
Sorry, I own a restaurant that have been in operation for 4years now and I give all the glory to God

Love800:
Please how do i start selling cooked meals as a business?

Love800:
How is beans parboiled?

Love800:
What kind of spoon?

NJV:
The first wash is very brief and doesn't involve soaking, so the beans doesn't absorb water, rather it cleanse the beans of any chemicals. Parboiling softens the beans halfway since they absorb water in the process. Parboiling without the first wash with hot water and salt may cos the beans to absorb some of the storage chemicals. One can never be too careful.

Ouchbabe:
Wash in cold water, then put in a pot of boiling water. Allow to boil for like five minutes. Pour in a sieve to drain the water.

Then put back in your pot of boiling water and continue cooking.

tobenuel:
metallic spoon

Love800:
After the first wash with cold water, why parboil again? I thought the first wash has already washed the chemicals away!

Love800:
Okay. So no need for parboiling na. After washing the beans with hot water to get rid of the chemicals, then i put it inside the pot back and cooking straight!
