How to Make African Spinach And Peanut Butter Stew
- Finely chop 1 medium onion and sauté in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Blanch 1 pound of ripe tomatoes in boiling water for 30 seconds, then peel and roughly chop them. Add to the onions.
- Wash, trim, and coarsely chop 10 ounces of fresh spinach.
- Add the spinach to the stew and cook, covered, over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup peanut butter with 2-4 tablespoons of hot water until smooth.
- Stir the peanut butter mixture into the stew.
- Season generously with salt and pepper (to taste). Add 1-2 teaspoons of chili flakes (or to taste), 2 cloves minced garlic (optional), and 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms (optional).
- Simmer for another 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if needed to maintain desired consistency.
- Serve hot over steamed rice, creamy polenta, or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
