If using fresh fumbwa leaves, wash them thoroughly and chop finely. If using frozen, thaw and chop.

In a large pot, heat the red palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot and cook until they break down and form a sauce-like consistency.

Stir in the chopped fumbwa leaves (or spinach/kale), crumbled chicken stock cubes, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the greens are tender.
