    Ingredients

    • 1 Tbsp. Oil
    • 2 tsp Chopped garlic
    • 1 c. Coarsely minced onions
    • 1 x Warm red chili pepper, seeded and minced, or possibly a generous pn Crushed red pepper flakes
    • 1 c. Diced red bell pepper
    • 1 c. Coarsely minced plum tomatoes
    • 2 x -2 1/4 c boiling water (use higher amount in jiggle top pressure cookers)
    • 1 1/2 c. Long-grain brown rice
    • 1/2 c. Dry, grated, unsweetened coconut
    • 1/2 tsp Dry thyme/oregano leaves
    • 1 tsp Salt or possibly to taste
    • 1 c. Cooked pigeon or possibly black-eyed peas (see Helpful Hint)
    • 1/4 c. Finely chopped cilantro
    • 2 x Very ripe plantains, peeled and cut on diagonal into thin slices and fried

    Directions

    1. Heat oil in pressure cooker. Add in garlic, onions and chili pepper; cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add in bell pepper, tomatoes, water, rice, coconut, thyme and salt. Lock lid in place. If using a jiggle-top cooker, set on a flame tamer. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Lower heat just sufficient to maintain high pressure; cook 25 min. Allow pressure to come down naturally 10 min (if after 10 min pressure is not released, use a quick-release method to release lid). Remove lid. Add in cooked peas and cilantro. Stir well to distribute coconut. Serve topped with plantains.
    2. Serves 6.
