The word stew generally evokes thoughts of cold winter evenings with the fire blazing. So you might think I’m a bit strange for posting this one in Spring. However, this is more of a light, nutty curry than a hearty-filling stew. Chicken, spices, peanut butter, sweet potato and a few other goodies, all combine to make a tasty dinner.

I like to add a couple of red chilli peppers to mine to spice things up a bit, but if you’re serving this for kids, you can either: Whilst the peanut butter and coriander hint at a slightly Thai-flavour-inspired dish (Thai being one of my favourite cuisines - like this Mee Siam , Yellow Curry, Peanut Pork or this Laksa), it’s the addition of tomatoes, stock and sweet potato that really brings it closer to a more traditional African stew.

Serve this dish with some toasted peanuts, garlicky kale and boiled rice. Sooo good!
