  1. everyone who tried it loved this dish.
     
  2. I agree with Doorping about the peanut butter being too strong of a flavor. Overall it was a great recipe to have to incorporate many different vegetables in unique ways.
     
  3. I used apple juice. I only used about 2/3 the amount of peanut butter they recommend. Next time I'll use even less peanut butter. It overpowered the tomato-apple broth which I thought was quite good on it's own. I also used only a dash of cayenne. But it was decent.
     
  4. I wish I had more stars. What a lovely dish. Really wonderful layers of flavors, a lovely sauce--excellent over rice or couscous. Absolutely adored it!
