    Red Beans and Rice on Monday


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 lb dried red beans, picked over
    8 cups cold water
    1/2 lb lean salt pork, bacon, or ham, diced
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 c chopped onion
    1 minced garlic clove
    2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
    3/4 tsp salt
    1 1/2 tsp Tabasco pepper sauce
    4 cups hot cooked rice

    Recipe



    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 3 minutes or until golden.

    Add the mixture to the beans along with the parsley, salt, and Tabasco 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 the hot cooked rice.
