Directions
West African Peanut Stew, Variations of peanut (or groundnut, as they are locally called) soups and stews are eaten across West Africa I adapted this recipe from several different cookbooks + my own preferences Savory, spicy, filling, healthy and quick to make! Omit the chicken for a vegan version and/or feel free to add in more vegetables (yams, eggplant, or squash could be good, I think) *NOTE* If possible, try to use Recipe #13953 if you don’t have berbere on hand Cayenne is an acceptable substitute, but really doesn’t do the dish justice like Berbere would Even just adding a pinch or two of the different spices in the Berbere mix would suffice!, This was surprisingly delicious! After awhile the peanut butter flavor was overwhelming, but I would still make it again!
