Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 lb dried red beans (soaked overnight)
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 1/2 celery ribs, diced
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
3/4 cup olive oil
3 -4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 -3 cups cooked rice

Steps:

Drain the beans, discarding the water, and set them aside in a pot. Place the onion, celery, garlic and bay leaves in a medium mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over them and let the mixture sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Don't skip it!
Pour the oil and veggie mixture over the beans and let that mix sit at room temp for 10 to 15 minutes. Add enough of the water to cover the beans and bring to a boil. (Here, you could also place the mix in a slow cooker.) Lower the temp to a simmer, add S & P, cover and cook for 3 to 4 hours. Remove the bay leaves and add final seasonings to taste. Serve the hot beans over the rice.
I add plenty of Red Hot at the end, as well.
