Vegetarian African Peanut Soup
Ready In: 45 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 5 cups low sodium vegetable broth
- 1 medium red onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons peeled and minced fresh ginger
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 bunch collard greens, ribs removed and leaves chopped into 1-inch strips (or kale)
- 3⁄4 cup unsalted peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
- 1⁄2 cup tomato paste
- hot sauce, like sriracha (AKA rooster sauce)
- 1⁄4 cup roughly chopped peanuts, for garnish
- cooked rice, to serve with
Directions
- In a medium Dutch oven or stock pot, bring the broth to a boil. Add the onion, ginger, garlic and salt. Cook on medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
- In a medium-sized, heat-safe mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and tomato paste, then transfer 1 to 2 cups of the hot stock to the bowl. Whisk the mixture together until smooth, then pour the peanut mixture back into the soup and mix well.
- Stir in the collard greens and season the soup with hot sauce to taste. Simmer for about 15 more minutes on medium-low heat, stirring often.
- Serve over cooked brown rice if you'd like, and top with a sprinkle of chopped peanuts.
