Description

A wonderful recipe for a simple red beans and brown rice dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 15 oz can of Dark Red Kidney Beans
  • Oil for the Saute
  • 1 small Onion chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, pressed or minced
  • Hot Pepper Flakes to taste
  • 1 tsp Brown Mustard Seeds
  • 1 to 2 tsp Rogan Josh Seasoning, or you favorite blend
  • Fistful of Cilantro
  • Brown Rice (Trader Joe’s)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, heat the oil on medium with the mustard seeds, hot pepper flakes, Rogan Josh blend, onion, and garlic. Saute until translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add your beans (you rinsed these, right?) with about half a can of water, add your cilantro, and let bubble ’til the flavors have melded and it’s the consistency you want. Now’s a good time to taste for seasoning. I’m often heavy handed with spices, so I added more. I may even have thrown some vindaloo spice in there for a little punch, but I’ll never tell.
  2. Serve over brown rice! What did that take, like 10 minutes? Yep.
