Background
I have recently discovered stock pots, which can add subtle flavours to stews and soups. I particularly like the smoked chilli & tomato one, but this time I used the paprika & sundried tomato version to make this spiced potato stew with spinach and chickpeas. The dish is perfect in a vegan diet or on meat-free days.
Ingredients
- 750g organic baby potatoes
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 red onion
- 2 clove of garlic
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tin plum tomatoes
- 1 vegetable stock pot
- 1 tin chickpeas
- 300g spinach
- 1 handful of parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Put the potatoes and bay leaf in a pan of slightly salted water and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, until tender, then drain and keep warm. Discard the bay leaf.
- Meanwhile, slice the onion and chop the garlic.
- Heat the oil in a large pan and gently sauté the onion and garlic for about 8 minutes. Stir in the spices, then add the tomatoes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Add the stock pot and couple of tins of water. Cook for 10 minutes until you get a thick sauce.
- Add the drained chickpeas and spinach. Put the lid on and cook for 3 minutes or so until the spinach has wilted. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Carefully fold in the potatoes, warm through then scatter the chopped parsley on top.
- Serve warm.
