African Peanut Stew
  1. Place the fenugreek seeds, coriander seeds and cumin seeds in a blender bowl or spice grinder.

  2. Blend the spices into a powder

  3. In a large pot, heat the oil. Add the onions and saute over medium heat for about 7-8 minutes until they're soft.

  4. Add the ginger and minced peppers, stir to mix.

  5. Add the powdered spices and mix.

  6. Stir in the tomato puree and tomato paste. Mix and cook 2-3 minutes.

  7. Add paprika and peanut butter and mix them in.

  8. Add all the vegetables and peanuts along with 3 cups of vegetable broth or water. Mix and bring the stew to a boil. Cover and cook 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. You can add more stock if you wish to thin out the stew.

  9. Finally stir in the harissa. I add a couple of tablespoons first, taste, then add more if I want to.

  10. Garnish with cilantro, if using, and serve hot.
