Instant Pot Vegan Peanut Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried red chile flakes
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 medium sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 cup diced yellow onion
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (3 inch) piece ginger root, peeled and minced
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 2 cups water
  • 3 cups chopped collard greens
  • chopped cilantro, or to taste
  • chopped peanuts, or to taste
Instructions
1
Combine cumin, salt, cinnamon, cayenne, chile flakes, and cloves in a bowl to create the spice blend.
2
Heat up your pressure cooker - such as an Instant Pot - and switch it to the Sauté mode. Wait for 2 minutes for the pot to warm up. Add sweet potatoes, onions, and bell peppers to the hot cooker; stir occasionally for 3 minutes.
3
If vegetables are sticking to the pot, add a small amount of water and stir. Add minced garlic, ginger, and the spice mixture; cook for 1 minute while constantly stirring. Switch off the cooker.
4
Add tomatoes and peanut butter to the pot; stir until the peanut butter becomes smooth and is fully incorporated. Add 1 cup of water, then close and lock the lid with the vent set to sealing. Set the pressure cooker to Manual mode and set a 10-minute timer. Allow 10-15 minutes for the pressure to build.
5
Wait for 10-40 minutes after setting the timer, then release the pressure using the natural-release method as instructed by the manufacturer. Unlock and remove the lid to access the contents.
6
Stir in chopped collard greens, then transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with cilantro and serve alongside the stew in separate bowls.
