Vegetable Stew is an incredibly delicious and satisfying dish made from a variety of fresh vegetables. The foundation of vegetable stew is onions, peppers, and tomatoes, which are enriched with other vegetables such as zucchini, cauliflower, carrots, and potatoes. The dish is cooked over low heat, allowing each vegetable to retain its natural flavor and nutritional content.
Vegetable stew is not only a delicious but also a healthy meal for vegetarians, as it is full of vitamins and minerals. With its thick, rich sauce, the stew is an excellent side dish with rice or fresh bread, but it can also be enjoyed as a standalone meal. Spices such as paprika, cumin, and garlic complement the flavors extremely well, making this dish a truly tempting bite in every mouthful.
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté the finely chopped onion and garlic until softened and fragrant.
Add the diced bell peppers, carrots, zucchini, and eggplant. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.
Sprinkle with Hungarian sweet paprika, stir well to coat the vegetables, and add the diced tomatoes.
Pour in the water or broth, then season with salt, pepper, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Serve the vegetable stew with rice or cooked pasta, garnished with fresh parsley.
