A lot of times, when people say a soup is thick enough to be a meal, they're playing you. But this soup sustains. This recipe takes its cues from West Africa, particularly Senegal and The Gambia, known for peanut, or groundnut, stews.
How to Make It
Stir together first 5 ingredients and 4 cups Sweet Potato Broth in a medium stockpot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes or until thickened. Stir in up to 2 cups broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Add salt to taste. Sprinkle with peanuts, and serve immediately.
