- Stir in the peanut butter/coconut milk mixture.

AFRICAN SPINACH AND GROUNDNUT STEW (AKA PEANUT, KENYA/TANZANIA)
This is from "Best of Regional African Cooking". The original calls for 1/2 c. finely ground unsalted peanuts. That's too much work, so I substituted peanut butter. This is a very thick, rich vegetable side. It is not a stew like we think of stews in the US. My husband liked it, and it is the only spinach dish he will eat.

SPINACH IN PEANUT SAUCE
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.
