| Who can make Rice & Beans??? I love rice and beans. My step-grandmother is from PR and I love her rice and beans. I would love to know how to make it, but I don't think should would be able to explain it all to me. So who can tell me how???? The kind that I like is sticky rice with these little round dark brownish beans all mixed in. YUMMY!!! I hope someone can tell me |

| The only kind of Rice and Beans I know are Red Beans and Rice. Goes something like this: Wash about one bag (a pound, I think) of red beans (the dry kind) and boil them for a few minutes, take them off the burner, cover and sit for 2 hours. Rinse them and add new water. Saute some onion, celery, bell pepper, and a couple garlic cloves in some olive oil. (I usually use a small whole onion, about 4 stalks of celery and half of a good sized bell pepper. But you can play with the amount). Then add some sliced hunks of sausage (tube kind). You can get whichever one is your favorite. I usually just get the Hillshire Farms smoked sausage (not the kielbasa). Cut the sausage in diagonal slices about an inch thick. Put the beans back on to boil and add in the saute'd stuff. Salt, pepper, a little cayenne pepper, add a bay leaf and cook until the beans are tender. This usually takes a few hours. Anywhere from 2-4 hours. Add more water if it starts sticking, stir often. Make your rice separate. Don't use Minute Rice if you want it nice and sticky. Gotta take the time for the real stuff. Then serve your bean mixture over a pile of rice. Some people mix it together but my bunch likes it just poured over the rice and they mix it themselves. Ummmm..... goood! I might have to stop off and get some sausage and make a batch tonight.

| I'm Puerto Rican...now is the rice white rice with beans on top...or is the rice a yellow color with the beans mixed in? I can get you the recipe for either...and just fyi, it takes a lot of practice to get it right...mine is definitely not at my grandmother's level. |
