Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Pre-cook the Sweet Potatoes: Place sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl with a splash of vegetable broth. Microwave for 3-5 minutes until slightly softened. This jumpstarts the cooking process and ensures even tenderness.

02

Step
5 mins

Sauté the Aromatics: Heat olive oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables soften and release their fragrant aromas.

03

Step
20 mins

Combine and Simmer: Add the softened sweet potatoes, remaining vegetable broth, chickpeas, diced tomatoes, lemon juice, ginger, cumin, curry powder, coriander, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully.

04

Step
5 mins

Final Touches: Stir in the raisins and peanut butter. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the raisins to plump and the peanut butter to melt into the stew, adding a creamy richness. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

For a richer flavor, consider using roasted sweet potatoes instead of microwaving them.
Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra kick of heat.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and a dollop of plain yogurt or coconut cream for a beautiful presentation.
This stew can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors will intensify overnight!
