This was tonight's dinner (we ate early). I changed it and added some
sausage, a tsp of Inner Beauty Sauce, and I used my Ring of Fire chiles
instead of the scotch bonnet. Otherwise it is the same. It was delicious.

   2      cups          rice -- I used basmati
   4      cups          boiling water
   1      tsp           salt
     1/4  tsp           freshly ground black pepper
                        Risa's addition:
   2      links         smoked sausage -- casings removed


Preheat large, heavy skillet (cast iron pref.). Chop sausage and add to pan.
Let it cook until no longer pink and fat is rendered a bit. Add onions,
garlic, carrot, bell pepper and scotch bonnet chile. Saute for 2 minutes.

Add the rice, stir it into the sauteed mixture, and toss and stir for 1
minute.

Put the sauteed mixture into a large saucepan, add the boiling water, salt,
pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook for 20
minutes, or until water is absorbed.

Heat Scale: Medium

NOTES : Risa's notes:

* I used a milder chile as DH is not a full-fledged Chile-Head, as I am. I
used a Ring of Fire chile which is a cayenne. Use whatever you wish.
