Directions
Bajan Beans, A wonderful and healthful combination of beans, rice and vegetables. It’s also very pretty, vegetarian, Caribbean and low-fat. It has a meaty texture and MILD curry flavor. My boyfriend, who is not fond of curry dishes, loved this. If you don’t want any peppers left over, you could just add a whole red or orange pepper for color. Flageolet beans are a bit on the expensive side, so buy cannellini if you’d like to save money. Adding tofu, a meat substitute or cooked meat would make this a more substantial one-dish meal., The great thing about this recipe is you can tweak it to your liking. used instant white rice to cut way down on cook time. Didn’t have a jap pepper so added extra chili powder and crushed red to spice it up a bit, as well as a lot more curry powder. Used much less vegetable stock because of the instant rice and used garbanzo beans because it’s all I had. Worked out great. The rice makes it filling enough for a meal in itself. Nice recipe, Yum! This was really enjoyable and quite easy to make! I agree with others that this makes a good amount, but in my family that is always a good thing. I made this with great northern beans, and I subbed in some veggies I needed to use up okra and green beans in lieu of some of the corn and peppers. I love that this is so flavorful as is but mild enough for the kiddos; for me a shake of crushed red pepper at the table made it spot on. Thanks so much for posting! Made for Healthy Choices ABC Tag.
