Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Rice

Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rinsed rice and 1 cup of vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes.

2

Cook the Beans

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

3

Add Seasonings and Beans

Stir in the cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Then add the red beans and the remaining 1 cup of vegetable broth. Stir well and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

4

Combine and Serve

Fluff the cooked jasmine rice with a fork and layer it on a serving plate. Top with the red bean mixture. Garnish with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro if desired.
