   Simmer open for another 15 minutes. Peel and finely dice the onions. Heat the lard in a large pan. Fry half of the onions in it. Remove the chilli from the beans. Add half of the beans together with the cooking water to the onions in the pan and mash them with a potato masher. Gradually add the remaining beans and liquid and mash into a coarse puree. Stir and heat up at medium temperature until the puree becomes dry. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Fry the fillet for approx. 4 minutes while turning. Add vegetables, rest onions, garlic and chili cubes. Fry for another 3 minutes. Season filling with salt and pepper. Line baking tray with baking paper.
