  1. PREPARE BEANS: Soak the beans for at least two hrs (overnight is okay too). Change the water and bring to a boil. Add in the onion, pepper and garlic; cover and simmer for 1 hour.
  2. Add in the tomato sauce, extra virgin olive oil and salt: cover and simmer 1 more hour.
  3. (Be sure to keep the beans covered with liquid, adding more water if necessary.)
  4. PREPARE RICE: Bring the water to a boil. Add in the rice and salt. Cover and let simmer for 20 min.
  5. NOTES:* Beans like they cook in many Caribbean countries -
  6. my mother, who undoubtedly got it from one of my father's relatives. I've seen it described as being from various countries, but it will always be Puerto Rican beans to me.
  7. Any dry beans can be used, but kidney beans and navy beans are the best.
  8. Chick peas aren't bad either. You can use a ham bone for flavoring instead of the extra virgin olive oil if you do not mind using ham.
  9. Yield: Serves 4.
  10. * This makes a very good main course or possibly side dish.
  11. Difficulty: easy.
  12. Time: 2 hrs soaking, 5 min dicing, 2 hrs cooking.
  13. Precision: the rice is the only part you need to measure.
