Total Time:

Ingredients:

1 lb. dried pigeon peas, picked through and rinsed
2 sprigs thyme
1 md. onion, chopped
5 pimento seeds, crushed
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup coconut milk or cream
2 slices Scotch bonnet peppers
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. salt
3 tbsp. margarine
2-1/2 cups brown rice

Directions:

Using a large pot over medium heat, combine pigeon peas, garlic, pimento, thyme, coconut and 3 quarts of cold water. Cover and cook the peas until tender, about 1-1/2 hours, adding more water as needed to keep peas covered. Boil until 4 cups of water remains,(you can drain and measure this).

Heat oven to 350°F. Using a Dutch oven or ovenproof pot over medium heat, heat the margarine, saute the onion and pepper, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add rice, peas with liquid, season with salt and pepper. Cover and bake until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 25 minutes.

Comments from natdabrat :

Needs much less attention than the stove top method.
