Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 cloves garlic, peeled; 3 teaspoons salt; 1/4 pound bacon (about 6 strips), chopped; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup); 1 green pepper, seeded and finely chopped (about 3/4 cup); 1 bay leaf; 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin; 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano; 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice; 2 (15 1/2-ounce) cans black beans, not drained; 1 3/4 cups water; 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Servings: persons

4 cloves garlic, peeled
3 teaspoons salt
1/4 pound bacon (about 6 strips), chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 green pepper, seeded and finely chopped (about 3/4 cup)
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
2 (15 1/2-ounce) cans black beans, not drained
1 3/4 cups water
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

1
Put the garlic on a cutting board and sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over the cloves, let it sit for a few minutes, and mince it into a paste with a knife. Set aside.
2
Place the bacon and olive oil in a large pot and set it over medium-high heat. Saute the bacon until it renders its fat and turns a golden brown color, about 6 minutes. Move the bacon around as it's cooking to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
3
Add the onion, green pepper, and garlic paste to the bacon and saute until the vegetables are limp and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of salt, the bay leaf, cumin, oregano, and rice and stir for 1 minute until well mixed and all the rice is coated in oil.
4
Add the beans and their liquid, along with the water and vinegar, to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 35 to 40 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed by the rice. Allow the covered pot to sit off the heat for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve.
