We just came back from Belize where we had rice and beans with coconut milk that were so good. I was in a time crunch so used a can of ttri-mix of beans, didn't use quite as much liquid and substituted brown rice. I didn't have any trouble with boiling over, but did vent the pot a bit to help the liquids reduce. Served it with a chicken jerk (brought back from Belize and it was like being back in the warm weather.

I have made rice (amongst other things a million times and NEVER have I had such an issue with something boiling out of control! Something about the milk/combination of ingredients caused my pot to boil over, two times on the absolute lowest setting on my stove! I swear it is a miracle that my kitchen did not catch fire tonight....that aside, this recipe turned out terrible!.

The sweetness was lost in the starchiness of the rice....and I think it brought out the starchy flavor and all the rest of the flavors turned out mottled. I really hope I did something wrong, because this was gross. Sorry

This recipe is fabulous! I live in Costa Rica, and this is the closest I've ever found to the recipes folks here use in their own kitchens, passed down from generation to generation. Delicious!
