Combine beans, rice, bay leaves, 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic and 3 tablespoons
oil in large soup kettle. Add enough stock or water to come 1 inch over
ingredients. Cook over medium heat until beans are just tender, about 40
minutes, watching beans carefully so mixture does not burn. Add extra stock
or water if needed.
In medium saucepan, saute onions, curry powder, cayenne pepper and reserved
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic in reserved 3 tablespoons oil until onions are
translucent. Add peppers, tomatoes, salt, sugar and lemon juice; simmer
until peppers are tender, about 15 minutes.
Add onion mixture to bean mixture. Gently stir in coconut milk and heat
through. Adjust water to thickness desired and add additional salt if
needed. Remove bay leaves and serve. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
Turbinado sugar, coconut milk and vanilla soy beverage are available at

A Message from our Provider:

“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
