Nourishing African-Inspired Peanut Curry Bowls
with Roasted Sweet Potatoes over Ginger Quinoa
Rich with peanuts and peanut butter, this is one vegetarian meal that’s sure to stick to your ribs. It’s loosely based on West African dishes that traditionally used nourishing groundnuts, and it’s loaded with tons of veggies like poblano pepper and pre-chopped kale, along with chunky spice-roasted sweet potato cubes. Spread the warmth over fluffy quinoa infused with ginger.

Preparation
Roast the sweet potatoes
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Peel and medium-dice the sweet potatoes. On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P. Roast, stirring halfway, 20 to 25 min., until golden brown and tender.
Cook the quinoa
Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse the quinoa. In a medium pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add ½ the ginger and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the quinoa, 1 cup water (double for 4 portions) and a pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 14 to 16 min., until tender. Fluff and keep warm.
Toast the peanuts
Meanwhile, in a large, high-sided pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Add the peanuts and toast, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until lightly browned and fragrant. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out and reserve the pan.
Make the curry
Halve, core and medium-dice the poblano. In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the poblano, remaining ginger and S&P. Sauté, 2 to 4 min., until beginning to soften. Add the tomato paste and sauté, 1 to 2 min., until dark red. Add the kale, cream, peanut butter, 1 ¼ cups water (double for 4 portions), the remaining spices and S&P. Cook, stirring frequently, 3 to 5 min., until the kale has wilted and the sauce has thickened. If the sauce seems dry, add 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) until you achieve your desired consistency.
Finish & serve
To the pan of curry, add the sweet potatoes; stir well. Divide the quinoa between your bowls. Top with the curry. Garnish with the peanuts. Bon appétit!
