Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for another 2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Pour in the canned tomatoes, including the juice, and stir well to combine.
- Add the peanut butter and mix thoroughly until the peanut butter has melted into the tomato mixture.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and stir well.
- Add the diced sweet potato, ensuring it is fully submerged in the liquid.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender.
- Once the sweet potato has softened, add the black beans, peas, and chopped kale to the pot.
- Stir well to combine, letting the kale wilt and the beans and peas heat through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the chopped fresh coriander leaves to the pot.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well.
- Remove from heat and let the stew sit for a few minutes to develop flavors before serving.
- Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with additional coriander leaves if desired.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, you can blend part of the stew before adding the kale and peas.
- Feel free to adjust the spice level by adding more or less red pepper to suit your taste.
- Lime juice can be added at the end for a touch of acidity and brightness.
- Consider garnishing with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro for added texture and aroma.
