Spicy African Peanut Soup

The popularity of this soup always kind of surprises me. I mean, we love it but I don't always expect other people to love it that much. After our last event, we had so many recipe requests that I said I would post it.

Enjoy!

African Peanut Soup

1 large onion

3-4 cloves garlic

1 litre tomato sauce*

1 800 m. jar or can of diced tomatoes

1-2 tsp. cumin

½ tsp - 2 tbsp. chili powder (we usually use crushed red pepper flakes instead.)

1 ½ - 2 cups natural peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

1-2 Tbsp. soy sauce

salt to taste

1 litre water

Sauté onion and garlic until they are just beginning to brown. Add other ingredients except peanut butter. Bring to boil and summer for 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Stir until peanut butter melts and soup is smooth. Adjust seasonings and add water if it is too thick.

*use a good quality tomato sauce or make your own without basil or oregano as these herbs tend to make the soup taste Mediterranean rather than African.

This sounds really interesting! I think I will attempt to make it. Now I'm off to research how to convert Litres into measurements stupid U.S. people can understand...

This looks delicious. I love a good soup. Funny, when I posted on Laundromat, I wasn't expecting to find this :)
