  Prepare rice and black beans

  Soak the black beans in warm water for about 15 minutes, then rinse them clean, discarding any spoiled or shriveled beans.

  Boil 500ml of water in a pot, then add the black beans and let them sit for 5 – 10 minutes so that they will soften faster when cooked.

  Add the broken rice after rinsing it clean to the pot used for cooking porridge. Place the pot on the stove and cook for about 5 – 10 minutes over medium heat, then add the black beans and cook for another 10 minutes until the rice and black beans are slightly swollen and thickened, then turn off the heat.
