How to Prepare Saffron Barley With Black-Eyed Peas [Vegan]
- Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or saucepan over medium heat.

- Add bell pepper, smoked paprika, and ginger, and season with salt. Cook for another minute or so.
- Add barley and stock. Add up to 5 cups or more of stock if you prefer a saucier stew.

- Check seasoning and adjust if needed.
- Serve with lots of ground black pepper.
