1 tbsp oil

1 onions, minced

2 tomatoes, finely chopped

1 red chilli, minced (optional)

10 mushrooms, cleaned and chopped

1 bunch fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup water

1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, ground in a spice or coffee grinder 

1 tsp paprika

Salt & freshly ground black pepper

Fry the onions until golden. Add the tomatoes, mushrooms, chilli, and paprika (add frozen spinach at this stage, if you are using it). Cook for 20 minutes on low heat, with the lid on, stirring occasionally.

Add the spinach and pumpkin seeds. Check that there is enough liquid to stop it from sticking, if not, add some more water.  Cover and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes, until spinach is cooked.  Season to taste.

Serve with rice and extra chilli sauce.
