Transfer mixture to a 4 inch half hotel pan and add aji pepper paste, pinto and black beans, tomatoes with juice, and reserved ancho chile pepper purée. Stir to combine. Cover with foil and bake in an oven for 30 minutes, remove foil and return to the oven for 30 more minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Hold warm.
