Directions
Mafe’, West African Chicken and Peanut Stew, Tried a Mafe at a local restaurant and straight away went hunting for a recipe Found this one and have to say – it’s even better than the one at the restaurant Have cooked it several times now and comes out perfect every single time Adding red chili works wonders , Good, nice for a change of pace used natural peanut butter (nothing but ground peanuts) I had no peanut oil so used canola oil I added the rice to the stew It was easy to make I always wanted to try an african peanut stew I will try the other Mafe on this site and see if I like that better
