African Peanut Stew

 I'm making African Peanut Stew (in my favorite pan). 

The basics are: coconut milk, sweet potatoes, ginger & garlic, and ground peanuts ("butter") (I use fresh ground, from the co-op, because I like to push the button on the grinder and see the stuff extrude)

After that, you can substitute w/ whatever you like in your fridge / garden.

African Peanut Stew 

RECIPE goes something like this

Sauté:
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 large onion
A 3-inch piece of ginger, grated
6 garlic cloves
 
Add to pot:
3 cups stock, or water
1 can coconut milk
A couple few sweet potatoes (I precooked mine in the microwave)
tomatoes, chopped—however many you have
garbanzo beans (or what have you in the way of protein)
bunch o’ greens
 
Cook 20 minutes or so.

Stir in 1/2 cup peanut butter
1 Tbsp ground coriander
1 teaspoon cayenne
salt and black pepper
 
garnish with chopped cilantro, if you've got it.

I'm eating it on brown rice.
