This is a recipe my husband makes from where he grew up in Western Tanzania in East Africa. You can use chicken or pork and it's a great crockpot dish. We think of it as "comfort food"! Great one-pot meal.

• Ready In: 4 hrs 20 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 4  pork ribs (or use chicken)
• 1  chopped onion
• 2  green peppers, chopped bite size
• 2  tomatoes, chopped bite size
• 4  medium potatoes, chopped bite size
• 3  crushed garlic cloves (more if you like)
• 1  tablespoon  grated ginger (fresh is best!)
• 1  cup peanut butter (prefer without added sugar)
• 1  tablespoon turmeric
• 4  cups water
• 15  sprigs fresh cilantro, with excess stems cut off

Directions

1. Put pork ribs, onion, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, garlic, ginger and 3 cups of water in the crockpot.
2. With one more cup of warm water, mix in the peanut butter and the turmeric until it forms a paste.
3. Add this to the crockpot.
4. Cook on low for 3 1/2 to 4 hours (longer is OK) or cook in a regular pot on slow heat until the pork falls off the bone.
5. Add the cilantro shortly before serving.
