How to make it

  1. 1

    Peel and small-dice the onion. Dice the bell pepper. Peel and mince the garlic. Rinse the rice in a strainer until the water is less cloudy. Drain well.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a heavy pot over medium. Add onion, pepper, and garlic. Cook 5 minutes, stirring, until the onion is soft.

  3. 3

    Add the rice and cumin. Stir 1 minute so every grain gets coated and toasts a little.

  4. 4

    Pour in the black beans with all their liquid, 1½ cups water, the bay leaf, and 1 tsp salt. Stir once. Bring to a boil.

  5. 5

    Cover, drop the heat to low, and cook 20 minutes. Do not lift the lid. Rest 5 minutes off the heat. Discard the bay leaf. Fluff with a fork and serve.
