Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Begin by rinsing the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a cooking pot, combine the rice with 500 ml of water and a pinch of salt, then bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until water is absorbed and rice is fluffy.
- While the rice is cooking, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and sauté until they start to become tender, approximately 10 minutes.
- Stir in the black beans, black pepper, and salt into the skillet with the potatoes. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until heated through and the potatoes are golden and crispy.
- In the last few minutes of cooking, add the frozen peas and corn to the skillet. Stir well to combine and heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
- Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and portion it onto plates. Top with the black bean and potato mixture.
- Garnish with chopped dill and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish.
