Haitian Recipe: How to Make Delicious Red Bean and Wheat
In Haiti, rice is often preferred to wheat, corn, or other grains. However, today, we’re going to make an exception and enjoy a delicious red bean and wheat dish. To begin, boil the red peas. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until golden. Then, stir in the tomato paste and cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly. Next, add the drained red peas, chicken or vegetable broth, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well. Pour the water into the saucepan and bring to a boil. Once the water boils, add the wheat and simmer until tender and the water is absorbed. Finally, reduce the heat and stir occasionally to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once cooked, adjust the seasoning to your taste and serve hot.
