- 2 cloves garlic pressed or minced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 quarts chicken broth
- 1 pound black beans, dried sorted for debris and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
- 1 teaspoon allspice whole
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 6 each cardamom pods hulls remove (1/4 tsp seed)
- 2 1/2 pounds oranges for zest, juice, slices
- Combine in onions, garlic, and oil in a lidded 6 quart sauce pan, over high heat.
- Stir often until onions are tinged with brown, about 8 minutes.

- (Reduce the heat and stir occasionally as mixture thickens.)
- Remove beans from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon zest and the 1/2 cup juice.
- Ladle beans into serving bowls.
- Place the sliced fruit equally on top of the beans in each bowl.
- Add to taste: sour cream, fresh cilantro sprigs, salt.
