Spicy rice and spinach stew is a flavourful and hot dinner recipe for cold winter days. I have learned to cook this spinach stew from my mother, but I have twisted the recipe a little bit by adding the hot sauce to it, which add a lovely chilliness to the stew. This spinach stew is totally delicious on its own, but adding any chicken or meat makes it a wonderful dinner.
Spinach is my family's favourite vegetable. We add it to almost everything; even sometimes, we love to eat it raw on chicken sandwiches.
If you are Spinach lover like me try making this stew; I believe you will find it so delicious and comforting.
