West African Groundnut Stew

Recipe By : pjh@eng.cam.ac.uk (P.J. Hogben)
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Meat, Miscellaneous

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 pound cubed stewing beef
6 tablespoons peanut butter
2 medium onions — chopped
1 pound ripe tomatoes — peeled and chopped o
chopped tomatoes
3 fresh chillies
1 pound carrots (or a mixture of carrots — turnips, and
to make up 1lb)
pinch of mixed herbs
piece of grated fresh root ginger or 1 hea
dried ginger
Salt and pepper
7 ounces black-eyed beans soaked overnight
7 ounces long grain rice

This is all cooked on top of the stove in a very heavy saucepan with a
tight fitting lid, as the meat needs to cook in its own juices, or a
flameproof casserole. If you have a pressure cooker use it as an ordinary
saucepan, as it seals in the steam beautifully. Also, if you are not sure
of the fitting of your casserole or saucepan lid then use a double sheet of
foil to line it and give it a more secure fit.

Deseed chillies and chop finely. Combine with peanut butter, ginger, herbs,
vegetables and tomatoes and mix well.

Place meat in pan, followed by vegetable mixture and some seasoning. Put on
close fitting lid and cook very slowly on top of the stove for
approximately 1.5 hours or until meat is tender. Don’t worry about apparent
lack of liquid because the meat and vegetables will provide enough.

Cook beans for one hour. Cook rice in double its volume of salted water for
15-20 mins.

Season beans with salt and pepper and mix with rice. Serve as an
accompaniment to the stew.

POT STICKERS:

1 C whole wheat pastry flour
1 C unbleached white flour
1/2 C plus 1 T warm water
1/3 C cooking sherry
1/2 C minced onion
1/2 C thinly sliced green cabbage
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 T freshly grated ginger root
1/2 C minced celery
3 T minced green onion
3 T minced cilantro
5 large mushrooms, coarsely chopped
2 T low sodium soy sauce
1-1/2 tsp salt or herbal salt substitute

In large bowl, combine flours and water. Knead 15 minutes, adding more
flour to water to create a smooth, pliable dough. Cover dough tightly
with plastic wrap and let rest for 20 minutes.

Heat sherry in wok over medium heat. Stir-fry onion and cabbage until
limp. Add remaining pot sticker ingredients. Cook, stirring for 2
minutes. Remove mixture from heat and place in colander to drain excess
moisture.

Divide dough into 24 small balls. On a lightly floured board, flatten
each ball of dough into a 3-4 inch circle. Fill each circle with about 1
T filling. Fold circle into half moon shape; pinch edges to seal.

Lightly coat two large nonstick skillets (or work in batches with one
skillet) with vegetable cooking spray. Set over medium heat. When hot,
add pot stickers, seam side up, flattening slightly on the bottom. When
the bottoms of pot stickers are golden brown, add 1/2 C water per pan.
Cover and steam for 20 minutes. Makes 24 pot stickers.

Per pot sticker: 4 cal, 2 G protein, 0.7 G fat, 8 G carb, 0 chol, 1 G fiber

***NOTE: I usually use pot sticker “skins” found in the produce section
of my local supermarket – this is probably not as healthy as the way
outlined above, as I’m sure they are made with all white flour, and I
don’t know the fat content, but it does save time, and they do an
adequate job of holding the filling. Also, you can freeze the “raw” pot
stickers in a single layer on a cookie sheet, and when solidly frozen,
transfer to ziplocs or a tupperware. Be Sure They are Solidly Frozen, or
you will end up with pot stickers en masse (trust me). To cook, just plop
the frozen pot stickers in a pan and proceed as usual.
