Ingredients:

  1. 1 pounds - dried black beans, (2-1/2 cups) OR 4 cans black beans
  2. 1 tablespoons - extra virgin olive oil
  3. 1/4 cups - ground mustard seeds
  4. 2 tablespoons - chili powder
  5. 1 1/2 teaspoons - ground cumin
  6. 1/2 teaspoons - ground cardamom
  7. 2 - medium onions
  8. 1 pounds - mushrooms
  9. 8 - tomatillos (see Note)
  10. 1/4 cups - water
  11. 5 1/2 cups - mushroom broth OR vegetable broth
  12. 1 cans - 6-ounce tomato paste
  13. 2 tablespoons - minced canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  14. 1/2 cups - plain Greek yogurt
  15. 1/2 cups - chopped fresh cilantro
  16. 2 - limes, cut into wedges

Directions:

1. Soak beans overnight in 2 quarts water. (Alternatively, place beans and 2 quarts water in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 1 hour.) Drain the beans, discarding soaking liquid. (OR use 4 cans of black beans - requiring no soaking at all, just drain and rinse well).

2. Combine oil, mustard seeds, chili powder, cumin and cardamom in a 5- to 6-quart Dutch oven. Place over high heat and stir until the spices sizzle, about 30 seconds. Add onions, mushrooms, tomatillos and water. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are juicy, 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover and stir often until the juices evaporate and the vegetables are lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Add broth, tomato paste and chipotles; mix well.

3. Place the beans in a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker. Pour the hot vegetable mixture over the beans. Turn heat to high. Put the lid on and cook until the beans are creamy, 5 to 8 hours.

4. Garnish each serving with cheese, a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
