Serves/Makes: 6 | Ready In: > 5 hrs
Ingredients:
1 cup dry red kidney beans, washed
1 can (14 oz. size) coconut milk
1 green onion, crushed
1 clove garlic, crushed
3 slices hot chile pepper
1 sprig fresh thyme
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 1/4 cups long-grain rice
Directions:
In a large bowl, soak beans in water to cover overnight.
In a large saucepan with a tight fitting lid, place beans and coconut milk. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 3-1/2 hours, or until beans are tender. Add green onion, garlic, hot chili pepper slices, thyme and black pepper.
Simmer for 5 minutes. Add rice. Liquid should be about 1-inch above rice - add water if necessary. Cover pan, bring to a boil, then immediately turn heat to low.
Cook about 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Just before serving, stir to distribute rice and beans evenly.
