Voila! A delicious vegan West African peanut stew that’s sure to please even the pickiest of eaters.

  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, warm the oil over medium heat before introducing the sautéed mixture of finely chopped onion and minced ginger. Add a small amount of salt to the mixture to help extract excess moisture. Continue cooking the mixture until the onion reaches a rich, deep golden hue.
  2. Can you spice up the dish with a pinch of creativity? Add the bold flavors of garlic, habanero’s intense heat, curry powder’s warm aromatic notes, and the deep smokiness of smoked paprika to elevate this culinary delight? Cook until fragrant.
  3. Cook sweet potatoes and let them simmer for five minutes. Add sliced carrots and continue to cook for an additional minute.
  4. Enhanced culinary experience awaits: Combine juicy tomatoes, rich coconut milk, savory broth, concentrated bouillon cube, nutritious collard greens, and crunchy peanuts to craft a harmonious fusion of flavors and textures. Simmer for approximately 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the collards are fully cooked.
  5. Add peanut butter and chickpeas. Let it simmer slowly until the mixture has reached a rich, velvety consistency that coats your spoon with ease. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of freshly cracked black pepper to taste. With a starting point of 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, we began our seasoning journey from there.
  6. Serve with rice. Adorn with a sprinkling of chopped peanuts and a delicate sprinkle of fresh cilantro for added texture and freshness. Enjoy!
