1. In a large skillet, saute the oil, onion, rice, barley, and ginger for 3 minutes. 2. Then add the broth, tomatoes, garlic, bell pepper and cover. 3. Salt and pepper to taste then simmer for 20 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. 4. Then add the beans and hot sauce to taste if desired. Re-cover and simmer an additional 5-10 minutes or until rice and barley are fully cooked. 5. Remove from heat and stir in coarsley chopped cilantro. Serve and enjoy. 6. *you may add shrimp or another pre-cooked meat if you desire. Add when you put in the beans. 7. **Also if you don't want to use barley, you can use the full cup of rice. However, barley signifigantly reduces the G.I. the same way basmati rice does. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
