- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Congri Cubano aka Moro Negro or Moro de Habichuela Negras is both a Cuban and Dominican dish that's widely popular and delicious. I love making this rice whenever we have guests coming over for a party or dinner. It feeds a village and pairs nicely with Ropa Vieja, Pollo Guisado, Chuletas, Pernil and so many other recipes. I love using leftover Cuban Black Beans to make this dish. It honestly never disappoints. Take a look and let me know what you think. Thank you so much for watching!
Ingredients:
2 cups of white rice
2 Cups of Leftover Cuban Black Beans
1 tbs Chicken Bouillon Cube
½ White Onion
¼ Green Bell Pepper
3 garlic cloves chopped
¼ tsp Oregano
¼ tsp Cumin
¼ tsp Black pepper
1 tbs Recao-- culantro and cilantro
Canola Oil
2 Cups of Black Bean Stock or Water

Girl I love your channel! I’m 25, got married at 19 and didn’t even know how to boil water at that time. Now I’m making all your recipes and my Dominican/Puertorican husband is loving them all!
I needed this!!! I went to Cuba a while back and had amazing food, but I’m a sucker for good beans and rice. Now I can finally try bringing a little bit of Cuba to my kitchen ❤️
Yes, yes, yes!!!! Give it a try and it will make you feel like you're back on the island. Thank you for watching!
Caca
My mother was a cook in a Cuban restaurant while I was growing up and Fridays were the best days because they had arroz congri y rabo encendio! ufffff memories!!
Girl I just love your channel......I have been killing it in my kitchen because of you. Thank You for sharing!
You prolly dont give a shit but does someone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?
I stupidly forgot my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
@Luca Felipe instablaster ;)
@Javier Zachariah thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out atm.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Javier Zachariah it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!

I love our channel
You are literally teaching me how to cook I love you 💙
You're welcome!!!! I'm so happy to help 🔥
Great recipe and a great video. I grew up eating Cuban food and often friends ask me for the recipe. Now, I will be sending your video to all those hungry friends. Thanks for making the video. Congri is good healthy food...!
My favorite rise Cuban style!!!! and I’m Dominican 🇨🇺
Delicious! We Central American make it very similar too : in El Salvador we call it : Casamiento ( marriage) and in Nicaragua and Costa Rica they called it : gallo pinto .. 🇸🇻🇳🇮🇨🇷
I love that! I knew it was also called Casamiento but didn't know it was called Gallo Pinto. Now I know. I'm dying to visit Costa Rica!
Chef Zee Cooks ! I am from Costa Rica, but I love Dominican food, Iearned from a Dominican to use the sour Oranges, ! Visit Fosta Rica anytime is the best country in the area, and Panama too!
This is you guys version of rice and peas 🇯🇲
When I think of this dish I think of Old school Cuban salsa I think of the smell of limes and mojo for masitas de puerco or rabo Encendido and all the Tia’s chilling in the sala with their coronas and cigarettes!! 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇪🇨🇪🇨🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺
‘Moro e Cristiano’ was the name I remember hearing a lot- this dish with some chivo or rabo?! Fam that’s a whole W.
If you want to use canned beans you can use them and still have the color , just liquify a can of blk beans with water and that will be you broth . 😉
Oh wow!!! Never heard of this. I have to try it. Thank you so much for sharing!!! I appreciate it!
How many cans do you need to liquify and how long?
i agree…you can use 1 can for beans and another can to use in the blinder to make broth
Awesome tip, thank you. 👌🏼
Where's the black leftover beans recipe? I can't find it on the blog.
I just seen a couple of video's on how to make this recipe and wow ! this out of all of them was the easiest I cannot wait to do this thank you so much !
This rice blew my mind when I went to Cuba! So good. I'll never forget a restaurant I went to in Havana that served me something called "chilindron" (don't know if I'm pronouncing that correctly) with that rice. Ugh! so good.
Chilindron de chivo (goat)
Goat curry
I spent some time in Cuban a couple summers ago and I love Morro Rice. Its the Cuban version of rice and peas lol. I was JUST telling my other half I need to find a recipe for it so thank you. 😊
Where can I get the black bean stock????
This looks delicious! In Belize they make a similar looking rice but it is made with coconut milk, coconut oil, cilantro and thyme.
That sounds amazing!!!! I want to try it now....
I made it! It was delicious
Hi chef zee! To get bean stock can I blend together a can of goya black beans? Unfortunately I live in a city that Spanish food/stores isnt so common 🥲
Yessss!! Girrlllll I was waiting for this video! I will definitely make it your way. Looks soooooo yummy!! Keep up the great work!
Ahora mismo lo estoy haciendo y quise pasar por tu canal a ver tu receta mientras cosino. Eso quise hacer hoy. Aunque lo se hacer, obvio, soy Dominicana jiji y se cosinar, pero me quise entrenener mirandote xq me encantan tus videos 🥰😘Besos
Keep doing your thing! I truly enjoy these videos especially when I run out of ideas of what to cook for the fam lol dominicannnnnn💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🤑🤑🤑🤑
I want to see the traditional version please!!!!
What is black bean stock ?
My mouth is watering! Looks delicious! Thank you
I love your explanation!!! See, I wish someone would’ve explained about the canned beans. No wonder my version of congri always falls flat...mine comes out grayish for sure. I always wondered how to get it to be darker.
This is a really good recipe and loved it! So did my family!! ❤️😊
Yay!!! Another winner! Thank you for making it and sharing with your family!!!
Binge watching your videos!!!! My mother has lots very similar to there… where did you get them?
Clever Chef Zee Zee Plant in the background
Nice to see in somalia 🇸🇴 we have same but cookid deferent we call canbulo ,
I'd love to try it! It sounds delicious!
Looks so delicious i will give this a try yum Tfs!!!👍👍👌😋😄
Me encanto tu channel con sub / !!!!
Chef zee! You’re my internet Tía. Thanks for the recipes 😁 & btw I was in Santo Domingo in March and brought back some Oregano. I was tired of hearing you say Dominican oregano and not having any lol.
Which recipes of your black bean do you use for the Congri?
That looks delicious I want some🤤😋
Seems easy enough. Gonna try this soon.
Let me know how you like it!
Looks great! Going to try it but with organic canned black beans.. due to time constraints 😋
How many people does this portion serve?
Instead of using aluminum foil to cook rice there are special aluminum pots made for that purpose. They barely let any steam escape. It’s sold mostly in Latin America. The brand is: Imusa. It has a rough finish which helps create that seal
Hi I'm wondering if you cook the rice before hand like the beans? or you put uncooked rice and cook it in the process?
where do you get black bean stock?
Deeeelicious ! It came out sticky, just the way I like it, One small lesson : The correct name for this is MOROS, from MOROS CON CRISTIANOS (Moors and Christians). This probably came from Spain to Cuba or Cubans invented it, I dont know. At one time there were lots of Moors in Spain, so the name Moros con Cristianos is a blend of the Moors (who are dark, being Arabs) and the Spanish Christians, who are white. CONGRI (Con Gris or "with grey") is just like this but with RED BEANS. Somehow the name "congri" for the black bean dish got used in Miami by non Cubans and now even the Cubans use the term. This is how I think it started to be misused. I'm 74 and we always called them Moros (black beans) and Congris (red beans) .
The moors were black. Black Muslims but black! Christianos being the white rice
Congris is also correct, depending on what part of Cuba you are from. In Havana they call it Moro or Moro con Christiano but in Province of Oriente in Cuba (where I'm from), we call it Congris.
Would you be able to add the recipe to your homemade beans? The link?
so good
It should be the other way around! You should make the traditional way and have a separate video doing it your way! Either way both are good!
How do you get the bean stock?
Looks delicious made my mouth watery yum👍👍🤗🙃
Zee, never did this idea cross my mind. Def trying it!
I've been looking everywhere for one of those pots and I can't find them -__-
Oh no! If you live in NYC, the pots are fairly easy to find. I have a few linked in Amazon Store which may be able to help. I have a video coming up where I discuss all of my favorite pots & pans and where to find them. :) www.amazon.com/shop/chefzeecooks
Walmart
Hiii how did you make the beans?
Your bae plus your a chef
Awesome combo
If i make the beans same day from scratch…. Do i get the additional bean stock from can beans?
I tried to make this step by step but however my rice came out undercooked in some parts and overcooked in other parts. I don’t know why?? I did notice that you didn’t cover the rice though with a lid immediately. I covered my rice and let it steam the entire time. Could that be the reason?
Gotta try it!
Right now im making your black beans from scratch recipe. The same water i used to soak the beans i used for the beans. If im going to make this dish using those beans, where would i get the bean stock from seeing how i used it to make the beans? Hope this isnt a confusing question.
Do you use dominican oregano?
Thanks for the vid. Question. What’s “bean stock”? Can I buy it like chicken bouillon?
I wanna try this!
Keep up the amazing work. Love your videos many great tips best cooking channel.
Do you cook the white rice fully before adding it to the beans? I suspect you'd want to only partially cook the rice first?
Wow I'm going to try this you really did step by step very well
Thank you! So happy that you liked :)
You should make the Oriental version of this dish, the one with red beans that they make on the eastern side of the island.
Great video.thanks for sharing but I have a question was the cooked?
Me encanto!
Yummy,looks amazing chef👏👏👏👏
Where do i get bean stock? Do u mean what's left after u boil the black beans? Or do u buy in the supermarket.
Nope bean stock is the juice in the can of the beans.
Where's the bayleaf??
Did it step by step, came out perfect 😍
Nicee!!! I need to make this soon myself!
is the rice raw when you mixed it in with the beans?
Was your rice already cooked ?
Can you please make a video of this but in the instant pot with dried beans?
Awesome video :) thank you!
2 standard cups or 2 rice cooker cups?
Where does one get bean stock from?
either from the can or if fresh, from the water you soaked them in
Yummy thank you
Can I use canned black beans to expedite the process? 😭
Hola mi hija de dónde eres cubana Dominicana porque ese arroz me encanta es cubano
How much water and rice need to be under
One of my favourite in cuba
Gracias amo tu canal
Gracias!
How many cups of oil
Yaaaasss. Thank you😆😆🤗🤗
What kind of rice do you use? Mine always comes over cooked and I do the same measurements given ☹️ thanks!
I use Long Grain Rice-- Arroz Carolina or Canilla. If your rice comes out over cooked try adding 1/2 cup LESS of water. Sometimes the pots, pans, and even stove can effect the outcome of our rice. My mom's stove doesn't heat up as hot as mine so I always end up having to use less water whenever I'm cooking in her house. I hope this helps :)
If i am using a fresh can . Should i drain the water from the beans ?
I would keep the water since it will help with flavor and color. Note that if you're using canned beans, your rice won't come out as dark as in the video :)
Loveeee your channel 🎉
What's up with that professional opening title sequence? You're super duper slick, Chef Zee!!!!
I just love your recipes! Can't wait to try the congri! When's your cookbook coming out?? I need it in my life!!!
that looks really great, how did you get your bean stock?
Angelica Rivera It’s the water when you cooked the beans
Where can I buy bean juice?
Please make it the traditional way as well gracias!
Yes! Working on it! Traveling these two weeks. I'll film it when I get back 🤗
Delicious 😋 and easy to cook. What is the size of the caldero? Thanks
Hi.. Ive been Dieing to learn to make Moros and Christianos CUBAN stule all my life. When i try , it NEVER Has that Sane Latin Flavor. I didn't see you adding any Bacon or Hoja de Laurel?? Or chorizo? Thank-U TFS :o)
🤤🤤🤤
New to your channel can u explain the fried onion dish i had it some time ago from some cuban dr's that stayed in a hotel i worked
Don't need salt?
Hi Zee! Where do you buy your calderos to cook in?
la-bodeguita.com/ I believe it's her website. It's on the description. Hope this helps.
emc you can buy 3 calderos on ebay for about 40$ and free delivery .
Where do you get the black bean stock?
I make it myself. It’s the water/liquid that you get whenever you make black beans
Looks delicious... thanks for posting. I've subscribed to your page to see all the future delicious recipes.
Can you make a vid on how to make this the traditional way?
