Spinach in Peanut Sauce image

This is my version of something I had in Tanzania. It is very easy to cook but amazingly tasty! If you like it and prefer a creamier sauce you can add 1/4 block of creamed coconut to the water. If you like your meat you can add pieces of chicken or pork when frying up the onions.

This dish was a complete disaster. The sauce was too spicy, the spinach was overcooked, and the whole thing was just a mess.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I think I didn't blend it long enough.

I think this dish would be even better if it was served with a side of rice or noodles.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some garlic and ginger to the sauce to give it more flavor.

I found that the sauce was a bit too thick. I added a little bit of water to thin it out.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a hot pepper sauce. Next time I'll use a milder sauce.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut sauce, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and it didn't overpower the spinach.
