Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons canola oil
-
1 medium onion, finely chopped
-
2 garlic cloves, minced
-
3 cups cooked white rice
-
2 cups cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon ground coriander
-
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
-
2 -3 tablespoons vegetarian worcestershire sauce (regular can be used as well)
-
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
-
fresh cilantro
-
sliced green onion
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add onion and sauté until it just begins to soften and turns color.
- Add garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until onion is golden.
- Add spices and Worcestershire, and stir into onion and garlic.
- (The first time I made this, I was afraid to add the full 3 Tbsp of Worcestershire, but the addition of the rice balances the flavor out).
- Next, add the beans and then the rice.
- Combine the rice and beans evenly and cook until mixture is heated through.
- Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
- Garnish with some chopped cilantro or green onions if you prefer.
- Vegetarians use only the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce.
