Red Beans And Rice On Monday

Recipe Ingredients

1 lb	454g / 16oz	Dried red beans - picked over
8 cups	1896ml	Cold water
1/2 lb	227g / 8oz	Lean salt pork, bacon, or ham - diced
1 tablespoon	15ml	Olive oil
1 cup	62g / 2.2oz	Chopped onion
1		Garlic clove - peeled, minced
2 tablespoons	30ml	Chopped fresh parsley
3/4 teaspoon	3.8ml	Salt
1 1/2 teaspoons	7.5ml	Tabasco pepper sauce
4 cups	640g / 22oz	Hot cooked rice

Recipe Instructions

In a large saucepan combine the dried beans and the water, cover and soak overnight. Add the pork, bacon, or ham and bring to a simmer. Cook, covered for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium skillet heat the oil and saute the onion and garlic for three minutes or until golden. Add the mixture to the beans along with the parsley, salt, and Tabasco brand Pepper Sauce.

Cover and simmer 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours longer, or until the beans are tender enough to mash one easily with a fork. Add hot water as needed to keep the beans covered, and stir occasionally. When the beans are finished they will have soaked up most of the liquid. Serve over hot cooked rice.

This recipe yields 8 servings.
