  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp cayenne
  • 1½ lb sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch dice
  • 1 (14.5-oz) salt-free crushed tomatoes

  • 2 Tbsp smooth unsalted natural peanut butter
  • ¼ cup chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
  • ½ tsp coarsely ground black cumin (nigella seeds)

Instruction

  • Heat ¼ cup of water in a large saucepan over medium. Add onion, cover, and cook 5 minutes or until softened. Add bell pepper and garlic, cover; cook 5 minutes or until softened. Stir in ginger, cumin and cayenne; cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add sweet potatoes, stirring to coat. Stir in tomatoes, miso paste and 1¾ cups broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes. Stir in beans; simmer 10 minutes or until vegetables are soft and heated through. In a small bowl, combine peanut butter and remaining ¼ cup broth until smooth; stir into stew. If a thicker consistency is desired, puree 1 cup stew in a blender or food processor and stir back into the pot. Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed. Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with chopped peanuts and black cumin.
