VEGAN SLOW COOKER RED BEANS AND RICE



Vegan Slow Cooker Red Beans and Rice image

This vegan version of New Orleans-style red beans and rice omits the sausage and ham hock, and instead adds smoked paprika, miso and soy sauce for a savory, rounded flavor. If you have a favorite Cajun or Creole spice mixture on hand, use 1 heaping tablespoon of it in place of the sage, cayenne, garlic, onion powders and sweet paprika, and taste before adding any salt, as seasoning blends contain a varying amount of sodium. These vegan beans are not as creamy as the ones made with pork, so smash a few against the side of the pot before serving to thicken the liquid. Serve with hot sauce, preferably a vinegary, cayenne-based Louisiana-style sauce like Crystal, Louisiana brand or Tabasco.

Time 7h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
10 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 heaping tablespoon white or yellow miso paste
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cayenne, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground sage (optional)
1 pound dried red kidney beans, soaked overnight
3 dried bay leaves
3 fresh thyme sprigs or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Cooked rice, for serving
Sliced scallions, for serving
Louisiana-style hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium. Add the onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring, until the onion is limp and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the celery and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the chopped garlic, miso paste, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne and sage, if using. Grind in a generous amount of black pepper and add 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine until the miso has dissolved, then remove from the heat and scrape the mixture into a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add the beans, bay leaves, thyme and 6 cups water. Cook on high until the beans are very tender and creamy, about 7 hours.
  • If your beans are not bubbling at all by the time they are done cooking, turn the heat up to high and let them bubble for about 10 minutes, to make them easier to digest.
  • Before serving, add the soy sauce, and season to taste with salt and cayenne. Using a fork or the back of a spoon, mash some of the beans against the side of the slow cooker to make the mixture slightly creamy. (It will continue to thicken as it sits.) Discard the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Top the beans with hot cooked rice and scallions; serve with hot sauce.

Categories     Vegan

Time 8h15m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 LB dry red kidney beans
5 bay leaves
4 cups yellow onion, chopped and separated
2 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama (hot) seasoning, separated
4 tsp vegetarian beef bouillon base or 2 Not Beef or Not Chicken bouillon cubes
6 cups water, separated
6 TBS avocado or Vegetable Oil
14 oz vegan sausage, cut into ½" thick slices
1½ cup bell pepper, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 cupchopped green onion + more for garnish
¾ cup fresh garlic, finely minced
Salt and pepper to taste
White rice, for serving
Chopped flat leaf parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Rinse, drain and sort red beans.
  • Add red beans, 1 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama seasoning, bouillon cubes, and 5 cups water to a slow cooker. Mix to combine and gently place bay leaves on top of the liquid so that they are barely submerged. Cook on high for 6½ hours.
  • In a large pot on medium heat, add the avocado oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sliced vegan sausage and cook until browned and all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove browned sausage with tongs and set aside, reswerving the oil.
  • In the same pot, add the rest of your chopped onion, along with the chopped bell peppers and celery. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions become translucent and the rest of the vegetables begin to soften, about 6-8 minutes. Add green onion and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • Transfer the partially cooked red beans into the pot with 1 cup of reserved water, fishing out the bay leaves if you're able to. Add the cooked sausage and season with an additional teaspoon of Slap Ya Mama. Stir to combine, increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, partially cover th pot, turn heat to low, and simmer about an hour to an hour and a half. The liquid from the red beans should be thick, almost like a gravy. When your beans have about 30 minutes of cooking time left, prepare white rice according to package directions.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Serve red beans over cooked whit rice and garnish with additional green onion and fresh parsley.
  • ENJOY!

VEGAN PRESSURE COOKER RED BEANS AND RICE



Vegan Pressure Cooker Red Beans and Rice image

Here's a vegan version of the classic New Orleans dish that uses smoked paprika, miso paste and soy sauce to add a savory notes. Pressure cookers are ideal for preparing dried beans; even unsoaked beans cook quickly and evenly, so that the beans become creamy but still keep their shape (though we've got instructions for a slow cooker approach, too). Here, you want the beans to be very tender, so that the stew is thick - with a few beans that have slightly broken down - and not soupy. This vegan version of "Monday red beans" is not as creamy as the one made with pork, so smashing a few beans against the side of the pot at the end of cooking is particularly important. Louisiana-style hot sauce is key as well.

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
10 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 heaping tablespoon white or yellow miso paste
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cayenne, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground sage (optional)

3 dried bay leaves
3 fresh thyme sprigs or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Cooked rice, for serving
Sliced scallions, for serving
Louisiana-style hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Turn on the sauté setting of a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker and heat the oil. Add the onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until limp and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the celery and bell pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the chopped garlic, miso paste, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne and sage (if using). Grind in a generous amount of black pepper and add 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients, then turn off the sauté setting.
  • Add the beans, bay leaves, thyme and 5 1/2 cups water. Scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits. Cook on high pressure until the beans are creamy, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Turn off the pressure cooker and allow the pressure to reduce naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually and open the lid. Add the soy sauce, and season to taste with salt and cayenne. Using a fork, mash some of the beans against the side of the pressure cooker to make the mixture creamy. It will continue to thicken as it sits, or you can turn on the sauté setting and let the mixture bubble for a few minutes to thicken. Discard the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Top the beans with hot cooked rice and scallions; serve with hot sauce.
