  • Now sauté the chopped onions and garlic in another pan until they are lightly golden brown, and add them to the meat and stir them. Next, add the spices to the meat and onion and mix them.
  • Add the chopped beans to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes.

  • Pour the rice into boiling water. Drain the rice once it is ready, drain it in a colander, and rinse with cool water.

  • Mix rice with meat and bean sauce in a pyramid shape away from the sides of the container.
  • Making a few holes in the rice with the bottom of the spatula would help to release steam.

Pour some oil on the top.  25 to 30 minutes for cooking Lubia Polo on gentle heat should be enough.
