Directions
Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Toss in the onion, leeks, and garlic, and cook them gently until they soften and smell amazing. Next, add the celery and carrots, giving everything a good stir. Pour in the broth, tomato sauce, black beans, cabbage, and potatoes, then sprinkle in oregano, basil, black pepper, celery salt, cayenne pepper, and toss in the bay leaves. Bring everything up to a boil, then lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 25 minutes. Stir now and then, until all the veggies are tender and the flavors have melded together. When you're ready to serve, sprinkle some Parmesan on top for a nice finish.
How To Plate This Dish
Serve this stew with a side of crusty bread or over a bed of steamed rice. It also pairs nicely with a light salad or some roasted potatoes for a complete meal. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro to add a burst of color and freshness.
Leftover Storage Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water if the stew has thickened too much. For longer storage, freeze in portions and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
