Ingredients

• 2 medium Sweet Potatoes
• 5 oz Spinach
• 1 large Onion
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Ginger
• 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
• 1/4 cup Tahini
• 1 can Diced Tomatoes
• 4 cups Vegetable Broth
• 2 tbsp Lime Juice
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Prepare your ingredients: Dice the 2 medium sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Chop the 5 oz spinach. Peel and finely chop the 1 large onion. Mince the 3 cloves garlic. Grate the 1 tbsp ginger.
2. 2In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat the 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat, which is about 350°F (175°C). Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent.
3. 3Add the 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, the 1 can diced tomatoes (undrained), the 1/4 cup tahini, and the 4 cups vegetable broth to the pot. Stir everything together well until the tahini is fully incorporated into the liquid.
4. 4Add the diced sweet potatoes to the pot. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
5. 5Stir in the chopped spinach and the 2 tbsp lime juice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring gently, until the spinach has wilted into the stew.
6. 6Season the stew with the 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir to distribute the seasonings evenly.
7. 7Serve the Senegalese Spicy Vegetable Stew hot.
