Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup dried red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
1 1/4 cups unsweetened coconut milk
2 1/2 cups long- grain rice
3 green onions, finely chopped
1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme, finely chopped
coarse salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Bring beans, garlic, coconut milk, and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
Reduce heat to low. Cover, and cook until beans are tender but not mushy, 1 hour and 50 minutes to 2 hours.
Stir in 2 1/2 cups water, the rice, scallions, thyme, and 1 tablespoon salt; season with pepper.
Bring to a boil. Stir once, then reduce heat to low.
Cook, covered, without stirring, until all liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Let stand, covered, 15 minutes.
Fluff mixture with a fork, and season with salt and pepper.
