Method

Step 1

In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of water over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, ginger and sweet potatoes with a pinch of salt. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the onions are soft. Add water a tablespoon at a time if things begin to stick.

Step 2

Add the tomato juice and tomatoes, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Add the peanut butter, cumin and cayenne pepper, and stir well to dissolve the peanut butter into the stew. Simmer another 5-10 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork tender.

Step 4

In the pot, mash some (but not all) of the sweet potatoes with a potato masher or large fork. Add the chopped spinach and stir to mix it into the hot stew. Simmer, covered, 2-3 minutes or until the spinach is wilted. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.

Step 5

Serve over brown rice.

Step 6

Garnish with chopped coriander and a lime wedge.
