It sounds like you’re referring to a plate of white rice, beans, and stew—a very common meal in many West African cuisines (especially Nigerian-style dishes).
Typically, it looks like this:
- White rice: plain steamed rice as the base
- Beans: usually boiled or stewed beans (often brown or black-eyed peas)
- Stew: a tomato-based sauce cooked with onions, peppers, oil, and sometimes meat or fish
The combination is hearty, filling, and balanced—rice for energy, beans for protein and fiber, and stew for flavor.
But “tempered glass” doesn’t fit as a food item—did you maybe mean something else (like “steamed,” “peppered,” or “tomato gravy”)? If you clarify, I can describe it more accurately or even give you a recipe.
