Congolese Beans and Rice
Saute red onion in olive oil.
Add green pepper
Add tomato paste
let the tomato paste turn the oil red
Add a little water to make a sauce - maybe 1 c?
add 1 tsp garlic salt
Add a little more water and simmer until veggies disappear.
When it looks like this, add it to pre-cooked (beans you have already boiled). Add 3 bay leaves, stir, cover and simmer for thirty minutes.
Serve with rice, boiled green bananas (see recipe), and hot sauce.
