Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add ginger, garlic, and chili; stir until fragrant, about 60 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add potatoes and carrots. Stir to coat, then pour in water. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add green beans, stir well, and simmer uncovered until all vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes longer.

  4. Step 4

    Taste and season with salt and pepper. The stew should be brothly, not thick.

  5. Step 5

    Serve hot in bowls, spooning the cooking liquid over the vegetables.
