A delightful and creamy spinach and peanut butter stew, perfect for a comforting meal.
Chop the onion into small pieces.
Use a sharp knife to make chopping easier and safer.
Heat a large pot over medium heat and sauté the onion until soft and translucent.
Stir frequently to avoid burning the onion.
Dice the tomatoes and add them to the pot. Cook until they break down into a sauce.
If using canned tomatoes, skip the dicing step.
Wash and chop the spinach, then add it to the pot. Stir and cook until wilted.
Add the spinach in batches if your pot is small.
Mix the peanut butter with a small amount of hot water to create a smooth paste, then stir it into the pot.
Ensure the peanut butter is fully incorporated for a creamy texture.
Season the stew with salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika. Adjust to taste.
Taste as you season to achieve the perfect balance.
Simmer the stew for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add a splash of water if the stew becomes too thick.
Serve the stew hot with your choice of side, such as rice or bread.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs for added flavor and presentation.
