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.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
