Ingredients
- 2 cups brown rice
- 2 cups cooked adzuki beans (soaking overnight helps quicken the process)
- 2 sausages , chopped (You can use spicy varieties if you like)
- 2 onions , sliced
- 3 garlic cloves , minced
- 3 cups hot water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- green pepper , chopped
- 1 tablespoon hot pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons onion powder
- 1 cube beef stock cube
Instructions
- In a medium sized non-stick pot, heat the olive oil and brown the onions and garlic. Add pepper flakes, allow them to heat till aromatic. Add chopped sausage, fry until oils come out.
- Add adzuki beans to pot, stir well to blend flavours then add stock cube, onion powder and peppers. Stir for a minute or two, then add in hot water.
- When mixture comes to the boil, add in brown rice. You can adjust the amount of water at this point if it appears too dry.
- Reduce heat, allow to cook slowly with the lid half off the pot. Once rice is half cooked, then you can stir. If you stir too soon, the rice with become mushy! It should be done after 20 minutes or so, depending on the type of rice and stove you have.
- Serve warm, topped with chopped scallions, or spring onions if you like, and a scoop of sour cream will go well with this too. Delicious.
