Rice and Beans
Serves 4
Ingredients
Method
250 g Dried Red Kidney Beans
1½ L Water
½ L Coconut Milk
2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
1 Onion, Diced
1 tsp Dried Thyme
Salt To Taste
500 g Long Grain White Rice
Soak the beans in water overnight. Drain and rinse.
In a large pot, combine the beans, water, coconut milk, garlic, onion, thyme, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the beans are tender, about 1-2 hours.
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Add the rice to the pot with the beans. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
