23. #### Step-by-Step Instructions
25. ##### Step 1: Prepare the Beans
26. Rinse and drain one cup of black beans that you have soaked overnight. Rinse a can of kidney beans, also draining them.
28. ##### Step 2: Sauté Aromatics
29. In a large pan or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened but not browned. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
31. ##### Step 3: Add Spices
32. Add ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the pan. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the spices are well incorporated and fragrant.
34. ##### Step 4: Combine Ingredients

37. ##### Step 5: Simmer
38. Reduce heat to low and let the curry simmer for about 30 minutes. During this time, the flavors will meld together, creating a rich and aromatic sauce.
40. ##### Step 6: Seasoning
41. Stir in salt to taste. Adjust spices according to your preference if needed.
43. ##### Step 7: Serve
44. While the curry is cooking, prepare your grains of choice (brown rice, quinoa, or barley) according to package instructions. Fluff them with a fork and divide among serving bowls or plates.
46. ##### Step 8: Assemble and Garnish
47. Pour the warm Caribbean vegetarian curry beans and grains over the cooked grains. Garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
49. #### Tips and Variations
