Cuban Black Beans & Rice Ingredients: 1 lb dried black beans 1 medium onion 1 clove garlic 1 tb fresh rosemary 1 tb vegetable oil 2 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 large bay leaves Cover beans with plenty of water (beans will swell). Bring to boil, remove from heat and let stand for one hour. Chop onion, mince garlic, strip rosemary from stem, add oil, salt, pepper and bay leaves. Cook in covered pan on medium heat for one hour or until beans are tender (longer if you want the beans "mushy"). Serve over steamed rice. Add hot sauce to taste. Serves eight. Enjoy. This is great stuff. J.R.Tipton === Rec.food.recipes is moderated; only recipes and recipe requests are accepted for posting. Please read the "Posting Guidelines" article.
