Re: [CnD] African beef and Rice
If you are cooking this recipe in a slow cooker, when should you add the Bellpepper? Wouldn't that make it too mushy as well? This recipe sounds good Teresa MullenSent from my iPhone On Feb 11, 2015, at 12:02 PM, sayegh.mary--- via Cookinginthedark cookinginthedark@acbradio.org wrote: Yes, just cook the rice on the side so it doesn't become mushy in slow cooker.

Re: [CnD] African beef and Rice
Hi, I make this recipe on the top of the stove all the time. I leave out the red pepper flakes though. I leave out the bay leaves too sometimes, but it is probably better with them. I love this dish!

Re: [CnD] African beef and Rice
Yes, just cook the rice on the side so it doesn't become mushy in slow cooker.
