Title. I'm arroz con frijoles pilled, but I'm wondering if there's a good sauce that can go on it to make it even tastier? Right now I've just been using hot sauce.

Also, wow, is rice and beans filling! I ate like 3 hours ago and I'm still really fully, off just one cup of rice and one can of black beans.

Put some diced onion, and peppers in some oil in a pan and let it simmer on low to carmelize it (stir to avoid burning). Get another pot and do the same thing with some washed rice. Once the rice is golden brown add a mixture of fresh cilantro, tomato sauce, black pepper, chilli powder, and any other spices you like, with water. It should be roughly half tomato sauce half water and you should add 2.5-3 parts of this for each part of uncooked rice you added. (If you put in 1 cup of rice do 2.5 cups of this. 3 if you need it depending on how much boils off.) Mix this in and leave it to cook. Do not touch the rice while it cooks. No stirring after the first stir to mix it. Just let it go til the water is gone on medium.

While the rice cooks add your beans to the pan with the onion and peppers and let the simmer on low as well. Season your onion/beans to taste. Once the rice is done you can combine the two, or serve them on a plate side by side. Whichever you prefer. I like to add a bit of lime juice at the end too.

I am also going to post some pictures of a cookbook from my phone but it is in spanish and I'm too lazy to type it all out. You should be able to show it to an AI and have it translated. I will reply to myself with them cuz I'm on a computer right now.
