Techniques
  • black-eyed peas
  • water
Pick over the black-eyed peas, cover with water and soak at least three hours on the counter, or overnight in the fridge.
Rinse the soaked beans until the water runs clear.
  • diced onions
Put in a pot with diced onions, cover with water and cook until almost done and soft enough to pinch, about 15 minutes.
  • long-grained rice
Wash the long-grained rice thoroughly until the water runs clear.
  • salt
Drain the beans, add the rice, a pinch of salt and water, and cook until the rice and beans are done; American long-grain rice took 15 to 20 minutes, Nigerian long-grain rice may take longer.
