How to Make Sierra Leone Peanut Butter Stew
- Season beef stew meat generously with 2 tablespoons of all-purpose seasoning. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove browned meat and set aside.
- Add 1 cup of water to the pot and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Bring to a simmer.
- Add the chopped bell pepper and onion to the pot and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened.
- Stir in the can of crushed tomatoes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of creamy peanut butter with 1/2 cup of water until smooth and pourable. Add this peanut butter mixture to the stew.
- Return the browned beef to the pot. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Add salt to taste.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is very tender. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed to maintain a consistent consistency.
- Serve hot over rice, boiled yam, cassava, and your favorite green vegetables (optional).
