Method
Tested in our kitchen
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions, bell pepper, and garlic, and sauté until the onions are translucent.
Add the rice and stir until it is well coated with the oil and lightly toasted.
Stir in the coconut milk, water, beans, salt, pepper, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked through and all liquid has been absorbed.
Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and remove the bay leaf.
