What does REFRY mean in Scrabble?
verb
To fry food a second time, most often beans that have already been boiled and mashed.
Refry describes cooking something that has already been cooked once, and it is best known through refried beans, a Mexican dish in which boiled pinto or black beans are mashed and then fried again in fat until thick and creamy. The second frying changes the texture rather than the basic food, turning soft boiled beans into a spreadable paste. Cooks also refry leftover rice or potatoes to crisp them up before serving.
