      Great dish. I halved the recipe and quartered the spices. I also ran out of time, so threw the potatoes and all fresh veg into a pressure cooker for an hour after the sauce had simmered for an hour. It made a great stew.

      Carla’s African Groundnut Soup, Carla’s winning dish from Top Chef All Stars I love Top Chef, but it’s rare to see a vegetarian dish (unless the challenge is to cook for a vegetarian and then all the chefs complain), much less a vegetarian dish that wins Got the recipe on Bravo’s website I’m putting it here for safekeeping I have o idea how many this serves or how long it takes, so I guessed , Great dish I halved the recipe and quartered the spices I also ran out of time, so threw the potatoes and all fresh veg into a pressure cooker for an hour after the sauce had simmered for an hour It made a great stew , This is delicious, but quite a production! Even though I simplified the steps, I managed to dirty darn near every bowl, casserole dish, and pot that I own It does make a huge quantity, though, so I was able to freeze half of it to enjoy later I simplified this by using jarred roasted red peppers and omitting the poblanos used only 3 quarts of vegetable broth Had no idea what to use as Chermoula spices so that was omitted as well I also skipped the garnish But it is delish! Very bold and spicy, just the way I like it
