For a richer flavor, consider using chicken or vegetable broth instead of water.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or zucchini, based on your preference.
This stew tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have had time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For a vegan version, ensure your sugar is vegan-friendly, as some brands use bone char in the refining process.
