Recipes In Practice: Red Beans and Rice
- Remember that Journey comes out today.
- To the PSN store!
- Decide to make something quick while it downloads.
- Conveniently already have a package of Zatarain’s Red Beans and Rice.
- Decide to gussy it up a bit.
- Throw a pound of frozen cubed beef in the microwave to thaw.
- Chop an onion (“… and actually, it’s my soul!”), a red bell pepper, and mince a couple cloves of garlic.
- Warm up a tablespoon of butter on medium high heat in the big pot.
- Feel vague sense of deja vu.
- Throw in beef, onions, and garlic and cook etc. etc.
- Add bell pepper and about a half cup of frozen okra pieces and cook a while longer.
- Add 3.25 cups water and Zatarain’s mix, per recipe on box.
- Oh hey, Journey’s ready to play!
- Simmer covered on low heat 25 minutes while exploring beautiful ruins.
- Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes… or maybe longer.
- Enjoy well-earned bowl of beans and rice while watching Journey’s credits.
