AY'S vegetarian stew- DISH 5- "5 spicy stews"

This is one of those dishes i discovered by accident. I say by accident because i love meat and fish on a crazy level and frankly speaking i look forward to the end of my meal, just so i can start eating whatever animal was plated for me.
As Africans our parents made sure we ate all our carbs or main dishes before we tasted our meat. It was considered disrespectful in some places if you ate your meat first...like really? The idea behind the "no eating your meat tradition", was that we kids never finish our food if we ate our meat first....But really...like wtb (that means what the bullocks)... it means we wont come out obese, like ...that behavior should be encouraged ...Eat meat and go to sleep...lol...

Anyway, enough of my rants and back to this tasty veggie stew. Like i was saying, i discovered this when i wanted something different and non meaty to go with my cous cous, and i tell you what.....i didn't miss my meat and fish for a second.
Don't take my word for it, lets get cooking..

INGREDIENTS (Serves 5)
4 Sweet Green peppers
4 Sweet red peppers

Chopped onions (1 small onion should do)
Chopped carrots (As much as you like)
Chopped spinach leaved (about 2 handfuls)
2 Tablespoons of olive oil

PROCESS

Clean your peppers and onion and add to a food processor. Add one cup of water to the peppers and blend until fine.
Get a pan and heat up 2 spoons of olive oil, and add your diced onions and carrots. Let the onions and carrots fry in the oil for bout 1 minute, and then pour in your blended pepper. Cover up the pan and let it boil/fry for 15 minutes. Take the lid off  and add your chopped spinach, your diced carrots, the bullion cubes(crush it in), and the salt. Stir it all into the pepper properly and then cover the pan and let it boil for a further 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the stew sit for 10 minutes and then serve with any of the AYSUGGEST'S and thank me later.
