Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
- 200g rice (preferably long-grain or basmati)
- 400g beans (can be white, red, or chickpeas, depending on preferences; canned beans can also be used for a quicker dish)
- 2-3 tablespoons of mustard (choose a quality mustard with a rich flavor)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: spices like cumin or paprika for extra flavor

Preparation:

1. Start by boiling the rice. In a pot, add water (the ideal ratio is 2 cups of water for 1 cup of rice) and a pinch of salt. When the water boils, add the rice and simmer covered for about 15-18 minutes or until the water is fully absorbed. The rice should be firm, not soft.

2. Meanwhile, if using dried beans, make sure they have been soaked in water for a few hours or overnight, then boil until soft. If using canned beans, rinse them well under cold water to remove excess sodium.

3. In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and slightly golden. This step will add a sweet and rich flavor to the dish.

4. Once the rice is cooked and the beans are ready, transfer both ingredients to a food processor. Add the sautéed onion and mustard. Blend everything until you get a smooth cream. If it's too thick, you can add a little water or oil to achieve the desired texture. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and optional spices.

5. Once the bean cream with rice is ready, you can serve it immediately or let it cool in the fridge to firm up a bit. It is delicious both warm and cold!

Serving suggestions:
- Serve the bean cream with rice on a slice of toasted bread or as a filling for wraps.
- You can add a few slices of avocado or croutons for extra texture.
- A side of fresh or pickled vegetables will perfectly complement this dish.

Variations:
- Experiment with different types of beans, such as black beans or ground beans, to achieve varied flavors.
- Replace the mustard with tahini or hummus for an interesting vegan option.
