For a smoother stew, use an immersion blender to partially blend the stew before adding the green beans.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño peppers to control the level of spiciness. For a milder stew, remove the seeds and membranes completely.
If you don't have green beans, other vegetables such as spinach or kale can be added during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Serve with a dollop of plain yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for added flavor and visual appeal.
This stew tastes even better the next day!
