Directions

In large heavy pot, heat oil over medium heat.

Add crushed red pepper flakes, coriander and cumin and cook, stirring often, until seasonings darken slightly.

Add peppers, fennel, oregano and chili powder and cook, stirring often, until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Add tomatoes and all beans and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.

Add water or tomato juice as needed if too much liquid evaporates.

Stir in cilantro or parsley and season with salt and pepper.

Serve in shallow bowl, garnished with shredded cheese or yogurt if desired.
