Steps:

2. Make your black beans: Rinse one can of beans and reserve the liquid of the other. Add to a medium saucepan along with all the seasonings. Cover and cook on low for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat until ready to serve.
3. Make your rice: Stove top: Rinse rice to remove excess starch. Add to saucepan along with lime zest, lemongrass, salt, and water. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat, remove lid, and allow to cool slightly. Squeeze the juice of one lime wedge into rice and stir.
