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. 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.
