Rice And Peas Beans Recipes

JAMAICAN RICE AND PEAS RECIPE - EASY RED BEANS AND RICE

Steps:

• Wash the rice in a sieve. Place in a pot, cover generously with vegetable stock, and bring to a boil. Add a little salt if the stock is not salty enough, turn the heat down and simmer the rice, covered, 5 minutes less than required by the packet's instructions. Drain well.
• In the meantime, chop the onion, bell pepper, and chili. Grate the ginger and the garlic.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook the onion, pepper, and chili for about 3-4 minutes or until they are softer. Add the ginger and garlic and stir for one minute.
• Add the sweet paprika powder, ground black pepper, and dried thyme and stir for another minute.
• Add the cooked rice to the pan. Add coconut milk and drained kidney beans. Heat for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the beans are heated through.
• Add 2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice and salt to taste. Stir in the butter. Taste again and add more lemon juice (not too much) and salt if necessary.
• Sprinkle the chopped parsley on top and serve as suggested above.

Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and cook until the beans are tender - the time will vary according to age. Add the thyme, hot pepper, garlic, scallion and black pepper. Simmer for a few minutes, then add the rice. The liquid should now be about 1 inch above the rice, so add the water if necessary. Cover the pot, bring to the boil once again, then immediately turn the heat to low. The rice will be ready as soon as the liquid disappears and each grain of rice is separate. Stir before serving.
