👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Drain the soaked beans and rinse them. Place the beans in a pot with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender (about 30-45 minutes, or longer depending on the bean type). If using a pressure cooker, cook for about 15-20 minutes.
⏱️ 30-45 minutes - 2
While the beans are cooking, heat the cooking oil in a separate large pot or skillet over medium heat.
💡 專業提示: Use a pot large enough to hold all ingredients. - 3
Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent.
⏱️ 3-5 minutes - 4
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and diced green bell pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 5
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook until they begin to break down.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 6
Add the curry powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
⏱️ 1 minute - 7
Once the beans are tender, drain them (reserving some of the cooking liquid if desired) and add them to the pot with the vegetable mixture.
💡 專業提示: If the beans are too firm, add a little of the reserved cooking liquid. - 8
Stir in the peanut butter until well combined. If using, add the crumbled bouillon cube.
💡 專業提示: Peanut butter adds creaminess and a nutty depth of flavor. - 9
Add the chopped sweet potato leaves (or substitute greens) to the pot. Stir well to incorporate them into the stew.
💡 專業提示: The greens will wilt down as they cook. - 10
Cover the pot and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the greens are tender and the stew has thickened slightly. Add a little more water or reserved bean liquid if the stew becomes too thick.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
💡 專業提示: This stew is delicious served with ugali, rice, or boiled yams.
