Ingredients
- 1 large yuca/cassava peeled and cut into 1/2” cubes
- 1 large sweet potato peeled and cut into 1/2” cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion diced
- 1 thumb ginger minced
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 ounces tomato paste
- 3 cups water
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 4 ounces baby spinach optional
Instructions
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the cassava and cook 10 minutes. Then add the sweet potatoes and cook with the cassava until fork tender, about 15 more minutes.
- While the cassava and sweet potatoes are cooking, heat the olive oil and cook the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper and tomato paste, and stir until well blended and fragrant, about 5 more minutes. Add the water and peanut butter and bring to a boil.
- Transfer the boiled and drained cassava and sweet potatoes over the tomato sauce, add the spinach and stir to combine. Simmer for 10 minutes until the sauce reduces.
