  1. A good side dish for us tonight. For a lot of people in Africa this would have been their main dish. Thanks for an unusual experience in cooking. Made for ZWT7.
     
  2. Delicious! This was so easy and had great flavor. I followed the recipe exactly. Thanks for another fantastic recipe. :)
     
  3. Very tasty. This is quick, simple and healthy. I used less oil and more garlic but otherwise kept to the recipe. I served it over a mix of barley and brown rice. Thanks for posting.
     
  4. Using peanut butter to make the sauce makes this recipe special. I omitted the red pepper, personal preference. It was a hit with all age groups at an extended family dinner. Thank you, ~Rita~. I cooked this for the Chic Chefs during Zaar World Tour 4.
     
  5. I liked this! Very rich and creamy, without all the unhealthy fats in cream. The flavors were nice, and I LOVED the texture of the finished recipe. Would be great as a veggie stirfry over rice. We ate it as a side-- I loved it, hubby just liked it.

  1. Excellent Recipe! I made this for a quick lunch today but had to use frozen spinach instead of fresh spinach! I loved the flavor and the peanuts on top gave it a nice crunch. I also added a bit more then a pinch of red pepper flakes , to give it some heat. I cut the servings to size to 2 and it was perfect. Thanks Rita!!!
