    Utensils Used
    | 1. Preheat the oven to 350. | 2. Put 1 cup water in a 2 quart saucepan and with the black eyed peas and bring to a full boil for five minutes. | 3. While the peas are boiling, peel and cut the onion, wash the rice and drain, and bring 16 oz. water to a boil with the bouillon cube in a separate saucepan. | 4. Drain the black eyed peas and put them in a bowl. | 5. Add the oil to the saucepan that had the black eyed peas and set the range to medium heat. | 6. Add the onion to the oil. | 7. Once the onions get soft, add the salt, cloves, cinnamon, cumin and crushed cardamom. Stir frequently for about 3 minutes while the smells of Kenya fill your home! | 8. Add the garlic and stir for another 3 minutes. | 9. Add the black eyed peas and mix well with the spices. | 10. Add the rice and stock from the bouillon cube. | 11. Turn the heat up to high until the mixture boils and then turn it to medium-low. | 12. Stir gently until most of the water is absorbed. Add the raisins and stir. | 13. Transfer the mixture to a covered dish (I prefer Corningware). Cover the dish with aluminum foil to make a tight seal first, then put the cover on. | 14. Cook for 45 minutes on 350. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
