Ingredients

Scale

For the stew:

1 onion, chopped
2 tsp fresh, grated ginger
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 chili pepper, minced
500 g/1 lb spinach
2 cups of vegetable broth
1.5 cups of cooked chickpeas
3-4 tbsp peanut butter
salt, pepper

For the rice:
1 cups of brown rice
1 lime, juiced
salt

To serve:
lime wedges
hot sauce
chili slices
toasted peanuts, chopped


Instructions

  1. Start by sautéing onion in a large skillet over medium heat, adding 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable broth at a time, until onion turns translucent, about 10 minutes. Add ginger, garlic and chili, and cook for another 2 minutes, until fragrant.
  2. Add spinach to the skillet, and cook until wilted. Add broth, chickpeas, and peanut butter, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Meanwhile bring two cups of salted water to a boil. Add rice, and cook for 20-30 minutes, until tender. Strain any excess water, then stir in lime juice and season with more salt, if needed.
  4. Serve peanut stew warm topped with peanuts over rice, with lime wedges and hot sauce, if using. Enjoy!
