Recipe Summary African Sweet Potato Stew
I came across an African sweet potato stew recipe a few years ago, and adapted it to suit our taste. It is very flavorful and just a bit spicy - just right for cold days! This recipe makes a lot of stew, so it may be halved for a smaller portion, but also freezes very well.Ingredients | African Potato Cream Side Effects1 onion, chopped2 small jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped3 cloves garlic, minced2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger2 teaspoons ground cumin½ teaspoon salt¼ teaspoon ground coriander¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes4 cups water2 ½ pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 2-inch pieces2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, drained2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed¼ cup peanut butter1 (15 ounce) can sliced green beans, drainedDirectionsPlace onion, jalapeno peppers, garlic, ginger, cumin, salt, coriander, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes in a large slow cooker.
