RICE AND BEAN STEW WITH KALE: AUTUMN DELIGHT!

Steps:

• Cook the onion on medium-low in a large saucepan or pot until it becomes slightly caramelized. Add the garlic and cook for a few minutes, or until the delicious aroma infuses your kitchen. If necessary to prevent sticking, add a drizzle more olive oil. Add rice and stir until the color darkens, slightly toasted. Again, you may need to add a tad more olive oil here to prevent sticking. Add the broth or bouillon, wine or beer, tomatoes, and herbs. Give a stir and turn up the heat to medium-high. Once it comes to a boil, cover and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Note: Depending on what kind of rice you use, you may want to adjust how long you cook the rice for.) Halfway through cooking the rice, add the can of beans. Once the rice is cooked to a texture you like, add the kale, salt and pepper, stir and cover for about 5 minutes, or until the kale softens. The rice will not have soaked up all of the juices the way rice is ordinarily cooked. You can eat immediately or heat it up the next day when all the flavors have melded together and the rice has soaked up more of the liquid to make it more stew-like. Top with some grated sharp cheese or hot sauce!

CENTRAL ASIAN RICE AND BEAN STEW

Steps:

• In a large heavy pot, heat the oil or fat until very hot. Add the onions, lower the heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Add the potatoes and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes, then add the cumin, chile, salt, and pepper and stir well. Add 2 cups of the boiling water or stock and bring to a boil. Let boil vigorously for several minutes, then stir in the dal. Once the mixture has again returned to the boil, lower the heat, cover, and simmer until the mung beans are tender, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so to prevent sticking. Add more boiling water or stock if necessary.
• When the beans are done, stir in the cooked rice. The mixture should be moist; add a little hot water or stock if necessary. Taste for seasoning. Serve hot, garnished with sprigs of fresh mint (if available) and accompanied by plain yogurt.
• Alternative: An Uzbek version of this stew includes lamb: Cut 1/2 pound lean lamb into small cubes. Add the meat several minutes after you begin sautéing the onions. You may wish to increase the salt and pepper.
