Louisiana Red Beans and Rice: I added a recipe from my mother, it's only fair that I have one from my father. This recipe would most definatly be found at Benjamin's father's restaurant. One day perhaps in a book (or movie) they will feature it.

Louisiana Red Beans and Rice
(as copied by K'Tesh from one of K'raig's recipes)

Ingredients:

1 cup dried red kidney beans
1 qt. water
1 ham bone with ham (Needs at least 1 cup of ham on the bone to cook with the beans)
1 large onion Chopped
1/4 cup celery w/leaves
1 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Tobasco Hot Sauce
3 cups hot cooked white rice
1 full sausage

Preparation:

Soak Beans overnight. Pour into heavy pan or Dutch oven. Add everything else (except the rice). Simmer for 3 hours or until beans are tender.

Remove ham bone, cut off meat and add to the beans. Add water as necessary during the cooking (the water should barely cover the beans when done).

Remove one cup of beans, and mash into a paste. Stir the mashed beans into to the stock. Stir until liquid is thickened.

Serve hot over white rice.

Makes 6 servings
(Make a double batch, as it tastes even better as leftovers)
