SPICY WHITE BEAN AND SWEET POTATO STEW WITH GREENS

Spicy White Bean and Sweet Potato Stew With Greens image

A flavourful and colourful stew, thanks to the host of vegetables and seasonings. Cook the greens separately to avoid any bitter taste. Because sweet potatoes break down easily, it's important not to cook the stew too long. For a mild, yet still flavourful stew, omit the hot chile. Serve it accompanied with crusty warm bread!
