Default BLACK BEANS WITH RICE

BLACK BEANS WITH RICE
A delicious Caribbean favorite that is cholesterol free and made with
very little added fat.

1 lb dry black beans
7 C water
1 medium green pepper, coarsely chopped
1-1/2 C chopped onion
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 bay leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp vinegar (or lemon juice)
6 C rice, cooked in unsalted water
1 jar (4 oz) sliced pimento, drained
1 lemon cut into wedges



Pick through beans to remove bad beans. Soak beans overnight in cold
water. Drain and rinse.
In large soup pot or dutch oven stir together beans, water, green
pepper, onion, oil, bay leaves, garlic, and salt. Cover and boil 1
hour.
Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 3-4 hours or until beans are very
tender. Stir occasionally and add water if needed.
Remove about 1/3 of the beans, mash and return to pot. Stir and heat
through.
Remove bay leaves and stir in vinegar or lemon juice when ready to
serve.
Serve over rice. Garnish with sliced pimento and lemon wedges.
