Easiest Costa Rican Rice Beans Recipes

EASIEST COSTA RICAN RICE & BEANS

Easiest Costa Rican Rice & Beans image

This recipe was actually posted by TheMom51 in her reply to recipe #78747. I thought I'd post it as a searchable recipe. Her original comment was: Just thought I'd add my Costa Rican daughter-in-law's recipe. It uses the traditional Salsa Lizano (you can order it over the Internet) which is probably why Matoszinho didn't think this recipe was quite right Preparation time does not include time to cook the rice. If you need to cook your rice add an additional 15 minutes to the prep time.

GALLO PINTO (COSTA RICAN RICE AND BEANS)

Gallo Pinto (Costa Rican Rice and Beans) image

I found this recipe in a copy of Vegetarian Times. Gallo Pinto translates as "painted rooster", and is a dish eaten by many Costa Ricans almost every day. The addition of ginger and Worcestershire adds a quite unique flavor to this dish.

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups cooked white rice
2 cups cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 -3 tablespoons vegetarian worcestershire sauce (regular can be used as well)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
fresh cilantro (optional)
sliced green onion (optional)

Steps:

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add onion and sauté until it just begins to soften and turns color.
Add garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until onion is golden.
Add spices and Worcestershire, and stir into onion and garlic.
(The first time I made this, I was afraid to add the full 3 Tbsp of Worcestershire, but the addition of the rice balances the flavor out).
Next, add the beans and then the rice.
Combine the rice and beans evenly and cook until mixture is heated through.
Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
Garnish with some chopped cilantro or green onions if you prefer.
Vegetarians use only the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce.
