frijol

Pinto or black

Frijol is the Spanish word for bean, commonly encountered in English when discussing Latin American cuisine or in regions with significant Spanish-speaking populations.

In Mexican and Tex-Mex cooking, frijoles typically refers to pinto or black beans, often served refried or whole as a side dish.

The combo plate comes with rice and frijoles.

The plural frijoles appears more frequently in English than the singular form.
