Dairy Free

Spicy, rich, and packed with good greens, this is just the soup you'll want on a cold winter day. It also happens to be a cinch to whip up and budget friendly, too. Feel free to add in some diced sweet potato or yams in addition to the kale.

How to Prepare Rich and Comforting African Peanut Stew [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Heat a soup pot over medium-low heat, then add the oil, chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until lightly browned and fragrant, about five minutes.
Stir in the cumin (if using) then pour in the vegetable broth. Whisk in the peanut butter, then the crushed tomatoes. Stir in the chopped kale, cover, and reduce heat to low. Let soup simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20-30 minutes. If you prefer a richer soup, let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes or so with the lid off, stirring occasionally.
When soup is ready, season with salt to taste, then serve and add a splash of Sriracha (highly recommended) and a sprinkling of crushed roasted peanuts, if you so desire. The soup will keep well in the fridge for 5-7 days.

લગભગ પાંચ મિનિટ, થોડું બ્રાઉન અને સુગંધિત થાય ત્યાં સુધી સાંતળો.
