Cuban Style Rice and Beans

Ingredients:

a little sunflower oil

1 onion, chopped

3 cloves of crushed garlic

half a teaspoon of chilli powder

the juice and rind of 1 lemon

salt to taste

5 cups of cooked rice of your choice (this recipes is very adaptable though so use more or less if required)

2 cups of cooked beans (black turtle beans worked very well though you could just use tinned kidney beans to avoid soaking and cooking)

Cook the beans and rice according to packet instructions. Heat the oil and cook the onion, garlic, chilli and lemon rind for a few minutes - mix this into the rice and beans with the lemon juice and serve.
