Speedy Coconut Curry with Rice, Corn, and Black‑Eyed Peas
  1. 1

    Combine the black-eyed peas, coconut milk, corn, tomato paste, curry powder, sugar, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a pot and stir until smooth and evenly mixed; simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the curry sauce is warmed through, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Fill a separate pot with enough water to nearly fill it and bring to a boil; add a pinch of salt. Add the rice to the boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain the excess water from the rice.

  3. 3

    Combine the rice and curry sauce in a large bowl and mix together.
