If you can find pigeon peas, use them in place of the kidney beans.
1. Heat the oil in a small Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and ginger; sauté, stirring frequently, until the onion softens, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the rice to the pot and cook, stirring frequently, until it is coated with the oil and onion mixture.
3. Add the beans, scotch bonnet, coconut milk, and water. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has absorbed, about 20 minutes.
4. Remove the pot from the heat and let stand, covered, for at least 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, being careful not to burst the scotch bonnet. Remove the chile and discard.
5. Stir in the green onions. Season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
Make sure you buy coconut milk, usually available in the Asian section, and NOT coconut cream, which is sweetened.
