- Cook and stir rice in a saucepan over low heat until toasted and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add coconut milk, water, and kidney beans; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 30 to 40 minutes.

soton@gmail.comThis recipe was a total fail. The rice was undercooked and the beans were overcooked. I don't think I'll be trying this one again.
