Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F (180°C fan).
Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a medium or large ovenproof pot. Cook the garlic, onion, thyme, allspice, bay leaves and scotch bonnet until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add the coconut milk, water, beans and salt. When it reaches a simmer, add the rice and give it a quick stir.
Once bubbles break the surface, cover the pot straight away and transfer it to the oven.
Bake for 40 minutes. All the liquid should be absorbed when you tilt the pot.
Leave the covered pot on the counter for 15 minutes, then fluff the rice and serve.
