Let's cook!

STEP 1

Heat the vegetable oil in a dutch oven over medium heat and add sweet potatoes and onions, and saute until the sweet potatoes are cooked and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in bell peppers and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, fresno chili, and bay leaf.

STEP 2

Continue to cook for an additional 3 minutes and season with salt and pepper.

STEP 3

Pour in the coconut milk and with a wire whisk stir in white miso until it dissolves into the coconut milk. Reduce the heat to low and bring the sauce to a simmer until it slightly thickens about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

STEP 4

Add in the peeled cold-water shrimp and let the shrimp warm through, 5 minutes. Check for seasoning. Turn the heat off and stir in spinach, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
