Cassava Leaves and Peanut Stew
A rich and flavorful stew made from pounded cassava leaves, simmered with peanut butter, and often enhanced with dried fish or meat for depth. This dish is a staple in Rwandan cuisine, offering a unique earthy flavor and creamy texture.
🧂 食材
- 1 kg Cassava leaves(pounded or finely ground (fresh or frozen))
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter(unsweetened)
- 1 large Onion(chopped)
- 0.25 cup Palm oil
- 4 cups Water(or more as needed)
- to taste Salt
- 1 Stock cube or seasoning powder(optional)
- 0.25 cup Smoked fish or dried shrimp(optional, for added flavor)
- 1 Habanero pepper(optional, for heat)
👨🍳 步驟
- 1
If using fresh cassava leaves, pound them until finely ground. If using frozen, ensure they are thawed and blended to a paste.
- 2
In a large pot, heat the palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- 3
Add the ground cassava leaves to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onions and oil.
- 4
Pour in the water, ensuring the cassava leaves are submerged. Add salt and the optional stock cube or seasoning powder. If using, add the smoked fish or dried shrimp and the habanero pepper.
- 5
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The cassava leaves should become tender and the liquid should reduce.
- 6
In a separate small bowl, whisk the peanut butter with a little warm water until smooth and pourable. Stir this peanut butter mixture into the cassava leaf stew.
- 7
Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently, until the stew thickens to your desired consistency and the peanut butter is fully incorporated.
- 8
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with rice, ugali, or fufu.
