Directions

Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium - low heat. Add onion and garlic. Saute, stirring often, until onion is soft but not browned, about 4 minutes.
Stir in remaining ingredients except cooked rice. Simmer for 5 minutes. Discard the bay leaf.
To serve, divide beans and sauce between 6 heated serving plates. Pack 1/3 cup of the hot cooked rice into a mold. Unmold onto the beans and serve at once.
