Soak the beans overnight. I use a large pot with plenty of water. The next day, skin the beans. Rub them between your hands (I always keep my kids busy doing this). Puree the skinned beans and the chopped onion. Stir in the oil, spices, and finely chopped corned beef. Fold aluminum foil into rectangular bags (10×15 cm). Fill them with the bean mixture. Add a quartered egg. Seal tightly. Place in a pot. Add enough water to the pot so that the bags are not covered. Bring the water to a boil and simmer gently in the covered pot for about 1.5 hours. Then the bean cake is ready.
