Steps:
- Combine coconut milk, bay leaf (or garlic) if you're using it, and rice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add some salt, lower heat to low and cover. Cook for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesn't scorch.
- Uncover. Cook, stirring over low heat, until rice is tender and mixture is creamy, about 15 minutes. At about the 10-minute mark, stir in beans. If liquid evaporates before rice is done, stir in water (about 1/2 cup at a time), and cook until done.

[email protected]This dish was a disappointment. The rice was undercooked and the beans were overcooked. The coconut milk also made the dish too rich and heavy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my rice and beans turned out mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, but the rice just didn't cook properly. I'm going to try this recipe again with a different type of rice.

[email protected]This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more spices or maybe some citrus juice to brighten it up. The rice was also a bit dry. I might try this recipe again with some modifications.
