I'd been creeping this recipe for some time now on the Vegan Stoner blog. Finally, I made it for a small vegan dinner party I threw last week. The hearty stew has a robust, but not powerful peanut flavor - just enough to make a hungry belly happy. I altered the recipe by adding sweet potatoes and few bottles of my pitch black IPA home brew for extra depth (made a huge pot).

Beer Peanut Stew
adapted from the Vegan Stoner
1 sweet potato, chopped in small pieces
1 potato, chopped in small pieces
1 large onion
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 bottle dark beer
1 32 oz can of crushed tomatoes
1 16 oz can of garbanzo beans (or 2 cups of home cooked)
1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped for garnish
cooked rice to serve on (I used basmati)
1/3 cup oil (I used avocado oil)
- Put chopped sweet potatoes and potatoes in a large pot with water rising an inch above potato layer. Par boil on medium for about 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
- In a large pot, add oil and onions and heat on medium high until onions are translucent. Add a bottle of beer and let simmer for a few minutes.
- Add tomatoes, potatoes, peanut butter and garbanzos and stir.
- Cover pot and cook on low for at least 40 minutes.
- Serve on rice and sprinkle with cilantro.

Hmmm. Creeping! I like that phrase. GREG
Looks delicious Anna! Love the idea of adding peanut butter to the stew. I made an Indian lentil curry today and added sweet potato.
Lars - I hope you do, but make it better... I would add kale and maybe even some soy sauce or something next time.
Dewi - :-)
tastofbeirut - And all this time I thought beer was healthy...
Lenia - I hope you make it! Hard to find peanut butter in Greece.
Mary - Super easy and comes together in a jiffy. Did I just say jiffy?
Greg - Haha, we are on the same page.
Helen - Yeah! The pb gives a nice velvety-rich texture and feel. Now you got me craving some curry.
1/3 Cup of Oil?? I'm no prude when it comes to oil/fat but... 1/3?! o.O
