Rice & Beans with stew

Today I decided to share what I ate over the week. This dish is a dish that takes time to be prepared but its very delicious. Different people have different ways and methods of making their rice and beans. I sometimes mix the two but today, the spirit said I should do separate, so let's dive in.

Ingredients

The ingredients I used for this dish isn't much, so I would say it's a bit economical, just that prices of things has gone up causing things to be costly. What's needed are;

  • Beans

  • Rice

  • Palm oil

  • Onions

  • Pepper

  • Salt/Maggi.

Step-by-step preparation

  • First, select the beans from bad ones, wash it and put in a pot of water, since beans takes longer time to cook, it's what I do first before going to prep other ingredients.

  • I go ahead to wash and cut my onions, then wash and pound my pepper in the mortar rather than cutting it. I prefer it that way.

  • Set these aside, if you have two mouth gas cooker, you can simultaneously cook your rice on one side of the cooker, but since I have just 1, I'll patiently wait for the beans to be done before proceeding to rice.

  • When you feel the texture of the beans and it's soft, you add your pepper.

  • When it's semi done, sieve it and wash it, pour it back inside the pot, add water and salt to taste and allow it boil and dry up.

  • Then, dish the two inside a plate, I simply warmed my stew in the fridge and poured a bit on top and food is ready.
