Directions
-
Rice and peas (or beans) is a very popular dish throughout the Caribbean, and perhaps because eating rice with hot foods helps to tame the fire.
-
(Not this rice!) The peas used in this recipe are called pigeon or gungo peas.
-
They are about the size of garden peas and are usually found dried.
-
However, cooked, canned pigeon peas are also available.
-
If they are not available in your area, black-eyed peas or kidney beans can be substituted.
-
(Not the same, however) If using canned peas, drain and reserve the liquid.
-
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over high heat.
-
Add the rice, and continue saut until the rice turns opaque and golden brown.
-
Add the chile, garlic, and onion and saut for a few more minutes.
-
Beware the fumes!!!
-
Be careful not to let the rice brown or over brown.
-
Stir the peas in with the rice.
-
Do not stir again during cooking!
-
Combine the coconut milk with the bean liquid.
