Recipe
•••••••••
For the rice:
1/2 cup (90g) brown rice
1 cup (200ml) vegetable broth (I mixed 1/2 vegetable stock cube in 1 cup boiling water)
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 400g can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 200g can sweetcorn, drained and rinsed
juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp paprika
1.5 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp chilli power
pinch cinnamon
salt & pepper to taste
For the salsa:
3 tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped onion
handful of fresh coriander
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/2 medium green chilli, finely chopped
juice of 1 lime
salt & pepper to taste
For the guacamole:
2 ripe avocados
1 tbsp chopped onion
1 tbsp chopped green chilli
juice of 2 limes
handful of fresh coriander
salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
For the rice - add the rice to a small pan along with the vegetable broth. Simmer for 40 minutes or until the rice is cooked. Keep an eye on it and add more water if needed.
In a separate pan, melt the coconut oil and sautee the onions for 5 minutes.
Add the crushed garlic along with the spices. Add a splash of water to create a paste.
Add the kidney beans & sweetcorn. Mix to coat in the spices.
Take off the heat. Add the lime juice and cooked rice.
For the salsa:
Chop everything up and add to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
For the guacamole:
Add all the ingredients to a blender/food processor and blend until smooth.

Here's the J. Kenji López-Alt article I mentioned about whether you should salt bean soak water:
***RECIPE, SERVES 6-8***
1 lb (454g) dried small (Mexican) red beans
1 red onion
1 red bell pepper
2 stalks celery (plus celery leaves for garnish)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 smoked ham hock (or smoked turkey leg, or spoonful of smoked paprika)
paprika
garlic powder
cumin
oregano
dried sage
salt
pepper
olive oil
sugar
vinegar
hot sauce for garnish
cooked rice to eat it with
Soak the beans in enough water to keep them submerged as they double in size overnight. (Kenji recommends 15g of salt per liter of soak water, but plain water is fine too.)
The next day, you can either keep the soak water, or drain it out and rinse the beans clean. (The water has a lot of good color, but there's some evidence that it increases gas if you use it, and Kenji says he gets better texture by discarding salted soak water and rinsing the beans clean.)
Cut the onion, pepper and celery stalks into a medium dice, and put them in a big pot with a little olive oil. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until they seem at least halfway cooked. Stir in the tomato paste, then quickly add in the beans and enough water to cover everything before the paste burns. Drop in the ham hock.
Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans taste done — 45-60 min. At any point in the process, season to taste with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano and sage. At the very end, stir in a pinch of sugar and a tiny splash of vinegar (not traditional but very good).
Serve the beans alongside rice, garnish with celery leaves, and drown in hot sauce. You can try to eat some meat off of the ham hock, but keep in mind it was chiefly for flavoring the beans.
