Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika, and cumin. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it cook for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Stir in the fresh spinach a handful at a time, allowing each batch to wilt before adding more.
