      1 lb Black beans;
      1 ts Oregano;
      1 lg Onion; chopped
      3    Bay leaves;
      1 cl Garlic;
    1/2 c  Vinegar;

      2 ts Olive oil;

  Wash the beans and soak overnight in 2 quarts of cold water. Saute the
  onion ( and it's just as good if you leave the onion raw), garlic and
  pepper in the oil. Combine all the ingredients except the vinegar and
  rice, and cook over low heat until the beans are tender. Add the
  vinegar and serve over the rice.
