Steps:

• Bring 2 cup lightly salted water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan to a boil, and immerse the brown rice in it. Loosely cover, lower the heat to medium-low and let simmer for 40 minutes or until the rice has absorbed all the water. Fluff it up and put it into another bowl for now.
• Put the rinsed and drained beans into a small bowl and mix with the olive oil.
• In the same pot you cooked the rice in, lightly heat the oiled beans but don't boil them.
• Add the dry spices and let cook for about 5 minutes to incorporate the flavors.
• Remove from heat, mix with the warm rice and fresh green onions if you have them, and serve immediately.

RED BEANS AND BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Drain the beans, discarding the water, and set them aside in a pot. Place the onion, celery, garlic and bay leaves in a medium mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over them and let the mixture sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Don't skip it!
• Pour the oil and veggie mixture over the beans and let that mix sit at room temp for 10 to 15 minutes. Add enough of the water to cover the beans and bring to a boil. (Here, you could also place the mix in a slow cooker.) Lower the temp to a simmer, add S & P, cover and cook for 3 to 4 hours. Remove the bay leaves and add final seasonings to taste. Serve the hot beans over the rice.
• I add plenty of Red Hot at the end, as well.
