African Spinach and Peanut Butter Stew Recipe #348276
Found online at www.fooddownunder.com, while looking for economical 'African' recipes.
Tasty and nutritious, a vegetarian main dish or a good side dish. You could easily add garlic, cooking it with the onions, add some mushrooms, adding with the tomatoes, and I think some chilli, fresh, powdered or flaked, would also add a bit of spice to this very versatile dish!
