Ingredients

  • 2 quarts water
  • 2 cups dried red beans, rinsed
  • 1 can (13 3/4 ounces) beef broth
  • Water
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 8 parsley sprigs
  • 3 scallions or green onions, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoons dried rosemary
  • 3 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 2 cups rice

Directions

1

Bring water to boiling. Add red beans and cook covered for 1 1/2 hours.

2

Drain beans, reserving liquid, and set aside. Add beef broth and enough water to bean liquid to equal 4 3/4 cups of liquid. Set aside.

3

In a mortar, pound together to form a paste the salt, parsley, scallions, garlic, and rosemary.

4

Heat oil and seasoning paste in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Put rice in Dutch oven and stir until well coated with oil. Add reserved liquid and bring to a boil, stirring. Add beans and again bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and cook undisturbed for 20 minutes.

5

Remove cover, stir, and cook about 5 minutes longer, or until no liquid remains.
