NewOrleans Red Beans & Rice


Ingredients:


2 Tbs bacon fat
1 cup onions, chopped
1 cup celery, sliced
1 cup green bell pepper, diced
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 lb Red Kidney Beans
6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 smoked ham hock
4 Tbs Chef's Cajun seasoning (recipe follows)
1 bay leaf
1 cup celery, sliced
Sea salt & fresh ground black pepper to taste
Hot cooked rice and hot sauce for serving


Instructions:

Rinse and sort dark red kidney beans, discarding any broken beans, stones, or dirt.

Press Sauté button on the Instant Pot, add bacon fat, onions, celery and bell pepper and sauté until they turn soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté one minute longer. Turn off Sauté mode.

Add kidney beans, ham hock, broth, Cajun seasoning and bay leaf and stir. Cover Instant Pot with lid, twist to lock and turn valve to sealing. Press Manual button and set to 55 minutes at high pressure.

When time has expired, allow pressure to release naturally for 20 minutes, then turn the valve to venting. Remove lid, remove 1 cup beans, mash and add mashed beans back to pot. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

Serve with hot cooked rice over the beans anointed with a generous helping of Franks hot sauce (I put that shit on everything!)

Thats close to mine, I dont use onion powder, I use smoked paprika and also celery salt and a pinch of cumin. But I start with a cajun mix base so I suppose I do use onion powder.
