AFRICAN SWEET POTATO PEANUT STEW



African Sweet Potato Peanut Stew image

I made this recipe after taking ideas from various places. It is a very adaptable recipe, so you can add different veggies and meats. I usually add cauliflower for extra produce and because it is neutral flavored. Some of the spice amounts can be changed; use the cayenne if you like things spicy. The types of milk listed would all be pretty authentic. You can add some cilantro or shredded chicken at the end of cooking if you want.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 carrots
2 celery ribs
1/2 cup chopped onion (or 2T minced flakes, or more of either, if desired)
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon turmeric
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 teaspoon clove
1 dash cardamom (or more, if desired)
1/8 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
2 garlic cloves
2 tomatoes, diced (about 8oz)
2 sweet potatoes
3 cups water (plus more, if needed)
1 cup milk (cow, goat, or coconut)
3/4 cup peanut butter
12 ounces okra (chopped, frozen)

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, sautée the chopped carrots, celery, and onion with the spices. Add the garlic after about 2 minutes (so they do not burn), and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the cubed sweet potatoes and tomatoes, mix for two minutes, then add the water and milk. Simmer until the sweet potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes. Use an immersion blender to puree the stew until smooth. Add the peanut butter and okra, and simmer to desired consistency (it might splatter). Add more water or milk if it is too thick.

African Sweet Potato Stew Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by OhApril

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon coconut or extra virgin olive oil, preferably organic
1 large onion, chopped
1 thumb-sized piece ginger, peeled and chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored and chopped
1 small jalapeño pepper, minced or 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon whole mustard seeds, brown or yellow
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 (19-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained (reserve the juice)
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1-inch cubes
2 to 3 medium white potatoes, chopped into 1-inch cubes
1 (12-ounce) can coconut milk
1/3 cup natural smooth almond or peanut butter (use almond for ACD)
1 pound collard greens, midribs removed and shredded
2 cups cooked chickpeas

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat; add the onion, ginger, garlic and cilantro and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the red pepper, jalapeño, cumin, mustard seeds, coriander, turmeric, paprika and cayenne and cook a couple more minutes. Add the tomatoes, sweet potatoes, potatoes and coconut milk; cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until the potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes. Place the almond butter in a small bowl or glass measuring cup and scoop about 1/2 cup of the liquid from the stew, adding it to the nut butter; mix well, until smooth. Pour the mixture back into the pot and blend it in. Add the collards and chickpeas and continue to cook until the greens are soft, another 5-10 minutes. If the sauce is too thin, allow to simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until desired thickness is reached. Serve over rice or cooked quinoa.
