- 1
Heat the oil or lard in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sautรฉ until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- 2
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute until it darkens slightly.

Pour in the water or vegetable broth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. - 6
Add the chopped spinach or other greens to the pot. Stir them in and continue to simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the greens are wilted and tender and the stew has thickened slightly.
- 7
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. If the stew is too thin, you can mash some of the vegetables against the side of the pot or simmer uncovered for a few more minutes.

Serve hot, usually as a side dish with rice (white rice or riz collรฉ) and a protein like chicken, fish, or beef.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Legume is often even better the next day as the flavors meld.
