For my honeymoon, I went to Belize. As a vegetarian, I appreciated that every restaurant offered this dish. Besides being a complete protein, it tastes amazing and is simple to make! This version of the dish is credited to Elvi's Kitchen in Ambergris Caye.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup dried kidney beans
5 cups water
2 tablespoons onions, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
salt and pepper
1 pinch thyme
2 cups white rice
1 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon olive oil (to saute onion and garlic)

Steps:

  • Soak the beans overnight. Cook them in a pressure cooker (or stovetop if you have patience and time), with 5 cups of water. Make sure the beans are clean, because you will need to use the cooking water when you are done.

This is from Just Food. I haven't tried it yet. In Belize they use a small piece of salt pork in it and omit the salt. I think that could be very good. I have no idea how long it takes to make.
