Red Beans and Rice
Red Beans And Rice is an impressive dinner. Made with 1 lb. dried red beans, 1 meaty ham bone, 2 large onions, chopped, 1 green pepper, chopped and 1 rib celery (with leaves), chopped, this recipe delivers authentic, satisfying flavors. A crowd-pleaser that never disappoints.
Soak beans in water to cover overnight. Rinse. Cover with water in heavy pot. Add ham bone (fat trimmed off) and remaining ingredients, except sausage and rice.
Bring to a boil and simmer 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add sausage (which has been steamed in skillet, drained and fried).
Just before serving, remove bay leaf and add a little more fresh parsley. For added thickness, remove about a cup of beans from the pot, mash thoroughly and return to mixture.
Serve with boiled rice and garnish with scallions. Serves 8.
