A flavorful Caribbean-inspired dish that combines the richness of coconut-infused rice with the hearty texture of red beans.

Traditionally, this dish is prepared by cooking rice in coconut milk alongside red beans, creating a creamy and aromatic base. The inclusion of ingredients like garlic, thyme, and sometimes spicy elements like Scotch bonnet peppers adds depth and a subtle heat to the dish

Fresh conch is diced and mixed with a blend of finely chopped vegetables. It's then marinated in a citrusy mix of lime and orange juice, which "cooks" the conch in a similar way to ceviche. The result is a refreshing and zesty dish.
