Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups chopped onions
2 tablespoons peanut oil or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic, pressed
2 cups chopped cabbage
3 cups cubed sweet potatoes (1-inch cubes)
3 cups tomato juice
1 cup apple juice or 1 cup apricot juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon grated peeled gingerroot, fresh
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, fresh (optional)
2 chopped tomatoes
1 1/2-2 cups chopped okra
1/2 cup natural-style peanut butter

Steps:

  • Sauté the onions in the oil for about 10 minutes. Stir in the cayenne and garlic and sauté for a couple more minutes. Add the cabbage and sweet potatoes and sauté, covered for a few minutes. Mix in the juices, salt, ginger, cilantro, and tomatoes. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are tender. Add the okra and simmer for 5 minutes more. Stir in the peanut butter, place the pan on a heat diffuser, and simmer gently until ready to serve. Add more juice or water if the stew is too thick.
