If using fresh cassava leaves, wash them thoroughly and remove tough stems. Finely chop the leaves.

In a pot, heat the red palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Add the finely chopped cassava leaves to the pot. Stir well to coat them with the oil and aromatics.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 4
Add the ground peanut paste (or flour) and mix thoroughly with the cassava leaves. Gradually add the water or vegetable broth, stirring continuously to create a smooth, creamy sauce. If using, add the chopped scotch bonnet pepper.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cassava leaves are tender and the sauce has thickened.
⏱️ 30-40 minutes - 6
Season with salt to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water or broth to reach your desired consistency.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 7
Serve hot as a side dish, traditionally with funge or rice.
