INGREDIENTS

• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 2-3 garlic clove, minced
• ½ medium onion, diced
• 2 teaspoons creole spice
• 2 cups uncooked long grain rice
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1¾ cups coconut milk
• 2 cups of red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 2 small bay leaves
• Salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
• 2¼ cups chicken broth or water
• 1 whole chilli pepper

PREPARATION METHOD

1. Light your Envirofit SuperSaver Charcoal Jiko using little charcoal.
2. Wash rice until water runs clear. Drain water.
3. Heat a saucepan with oil. Then add onions, garlic, thyme and chilli pepper, sauté for about a minute.
4. Stir in rice to the pan, followed by beans for about 2 minutes, then add coconut milk, bay leaves, creole spice and 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat, by slightly closing the SuperSaver air regulator. Cover with a lid and simmer until rice is cooked, about 20 minutes or more. Stir occasionally to prevent rice burning and add more water if needed.
5. Adjust for salt and pepper and discard bay leaves.
6. Serve warm to your family and enjoy!
