Notes
This One-Pot Vegan Peanut Stew can be made in a regular pot, instant pot, or slow cooker. The recipe card below shares how to make this in a regular pot, though if you want to make this in a slow cooker or instant pot, add all of the ingredients except for the kale and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Then add the shredded kale 15 minutes before serving.
Give the onions, ginger and garlic time to brown in the pot to really build up the flavour.
Use chunky peanut butter for this recipe. It adds some great texture!
Serve this stew on its own or over some steamed white rice. It’s also great topped off with some cilantro and crushed peanuts.
