Mexican Beans and Rice
3 large brown onions, finely diced
1 tablespoon crushed garlic (GARLC)
2 tablespoons olive oil (OLIOE)
1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds (CUMWPP)
1 tablespoon chipotle powder, or 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (CHIPPA / CHIPCG80)
3 cups canned Sofia black beans (BLACKB)
2 cups basmati rice (RICBWK)
3 teaspoons Massel vegetable stock (VEGBD2.5)
2 tablespoons Essente tomato paste in a tube (TOMPT)
1/2 teaspoon rubbed oregano (OREGA)
To Garnish
Freshly chopped coriander
Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until caramelised - this should take 15 - 20 minutes.
Add chipotle and cumin and cook for a further two minutes.
Add beans, rice, Massel stock powder, tomato paste, oregano and water to your onions.
Bring rice to a boil. Reduce temperature and simmer for 20 minutes with lid on.
Once 20 minutes has elapsed check that all the water has been absorbed and set aside for 10 minutes leaving the lid on.
After 10 minutes the rice should be cooked and be able to be fluffed up with a fork. Garnish the rice with coriander and serve with your favourite Mexican dish.
