African Pineapple Peanut Stew

Source: Vegetarian Resource Center, vrc, Boston, MA

 

1 cup onions, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed

1 Tbspl vegetable oil

4 cups kale, sliced

2 cups pineapple, canned, crushed and undrained

1/2 cup peanut butter

1 Tbsp. tabasco or hot pepper sauce

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

salt to taste

 

In a covered saucepan, saute the onions and garlic in the oil for about 10

minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are lightly browned. While

the onions are sauteing, wash the kale. Remove the stems. Stack the leaves

on a cutting surface and slice crosswise into 1-inch thick slices. Stir in

the kale, cover, and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring a couple of time,

until just tender. Stir in the peanut butter, hot pepper sauce, and simmer

for 5 minutes. Add salt to taste.

 

*You can use spinach instead of the kale but you may wish to use more as the

spinach shrivels up considerably more than the kale does.
