Andrews Fire And Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the brown sugar, orange juice, hot sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Dry the shrimp well with paper towels and add to a large bowl. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the shrimp and toss to coat.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry the shrimp in the hot oil until pink, about 1 minute per side. Add the ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sauce mixture, rice and scallions and cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes.
• Top with more red pepper flakes, a drizzle of sriracha and cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• Add 4 cups of water to a medium pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Put the ancho chiles in a medium bowl and pour in the boiling water. Use a plate to weigh down the chiles so they remain submerged. Soak until softened, about 20 minutes. Add the chiles, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the chile soaking water, and the sour cream to a blender and blitz until smooth. Add more of the soaking water, if needed, for consistency. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a bowl or jar and store covered in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Rinse and pick beans. Do not soak. Mix all ingredients except rice in a soup pot. Add water to cover.
• Simmer uncovered 3-4 hours until beans are tender. Add water as needed.
• 30 minutes before serving, prepare rice as directed. Serve beans over rice with plenty of hot cornbread.
