SPICY PEANUT AND PUMPKIN SOUP
This recipe is a promise of warmth on those cool autumn nights. Habanero chiles and peanuts both feature heavily in Nigerian cuisine, and this soup is an adaptation of a long-simmered stew common to much of West Africa. Don't be afraid of a chile with seeds: The fragrant oils from these peppers are worth every bite. The peanut butter and coconut milk mellow the warmth of the chile to a gentle, lingering heat, but you can also take the chile out before the soup is puréed. An optional spoon of honey to the soup will round out the flavors, and a dollop of crème fraîche or yogurt will further temper the heat. Serve with a baguette or sourdough bread for dipping.

Steps:
- In a large stock pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring frequently until softened and just beginning to brown around the edges, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chile and pumpkin purée, and whisk in the water or stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and allow to simmer on low, giving an occasional stir, for 20 minutes or until slightly reduced and thickened. Remove the chile after the soup simmers if you don't care for much spice.
- Add coconut milk, agave or honey (if using), and peanut butter to the pot. Using an immersion blender or working in batches in a standing blender, purée the soup until smooth. Season with salt and keep warm over low heat. Do not bring soup up to a simmer or boil at this point. (This reduces the risk of the oils in the peanut butter separating and breaking the soup's smooth texture.)
- Divide soup between bowls, sprinkle with the chives and a dollop of crème fraîche or yogurt, or a drizzle of olive oil to make it vegan. Serve with a warm crusty baguette or chunks of warm sourdough for dipping.

WEST AFRICAN PEANUT STEW
One-pot meals are staples in Gullah-Geechie households, and this dish is a special one to me. West African enslaved people were brought to the Low Country, and with them they brought their indigenous foods like collards, tomatoes, peanuts and rice. This stew has all of those ingredients, and it's delicious served on its own or over rice.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven until hot. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and cook until browned on all sides, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and bouillon cubes to the pot and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, tomato paste and peanut butter. Add 4 cups of water and the Scotch bonnet pepper. Return the chicken to the pot. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat and let simmer 10 to 12 minutes.
- Add the sweet potatoes, tomatoes and collard greens. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, about 25 minutes. (Remove the Scotch bonnet pepper if someone has a low tolerance for heat.)
- Serve warm with hot cooked rice, if using.

Steps:
- Saute the onions in oil until just translucent.
- Stir in the cayenne and ginger.
- Add the carrots and saute a couple more minutes.
- Mix in the potatoes and stock.
- Bring the soup to a boil and then simmer for about 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- In a blender or food processor, puree the vegetables with the cooking liquid and the tomato juice.
- Return the puree to the soup pot. Stir in the peanut butter until smooth.
- Taste the soup. Its sweetness will depend on the sweetness of the carrots and sweet potatoes. If it is not naturally sweet, add just a little sugar to enhance the other flavors.
- Reheat the soup gently, using a heat diffuser if needed to prevent scorching.
- Add more water, stock, or tomato juice for a thinner soup.
- Serve topped with plenty of chopped scallions or chives.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add carrot and onion; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft but have not taken on any color, about 5 minutes. Add peanuts, broth, and 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until peanuts are tender, about 1 hour, 20 minutes.
- Working in batches (do not fill jar more than halfway), puree soup in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute. (Or use an immersion blender.) Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids to remove as much liquid as possible. Return to pot and reheat over low, if necessary.
- Stir lemon juice into soup. Season with salt and pepper and serve, topped with apple, red-pepper flakes, and a drizzle of oil.
WEST AFRICAN PEANUT SOUP WITH CHICKEN
This West African soup is about as different from a traditional European chicken-in-a-pot soup as you can get, flavored with ginger, garlic and chiles (sounds Chinese, yes?), and incorporating vegetables like sweet potatoes and kale. Then of course there are the peanuts. When it comes to the peanut butter, "natural" peanut butter, made from peanuts and salt and nothing else, works best. Chunky or creamy? It doesn't matter much. Finally, it's nice to time the cooking so that the sweet potatoes do not quite fall apart.

Steps:
- Chop peanuts, or crush them with the side of a knife, or pulse them in a food processor to chop roughly.
- Put oil in a deep skillet or medium saucepan over medium heat; a minute later, add onion, ginger and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chicken and continue cooking for another 3 or 4 minutes, until just coloring. Add 1/2 cup peanuts and the cayenne and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Stir in the stock and the sweet potatoes, bring to a boil, and turn heat down to medium-low so the soup bubbles gently. Stir in tomatoes and collards, then cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup peanut butter. Taste, adjust seasoning (you may want to add more peanut butter at this point) and serve, garnished with remaining peanuts.

- Place the noodles in a large heat proof bowl. Pour boiling hot water in the bowl until the noodles are completely submerged. Mix the noodles around a bit and leave to soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until the noodles are pliable and the noodles are chewy.Alternatively, you can also opt to just cook down the dried noodles directly in the soup later on!
- Heat a large pot over high heat (note: this will be the same pot used for the soup later on for minimal clean-up).
- Remove most of the oil in the pot. I kept around 1 tbsp of the oil. In the same pot over high heat, add in the ginger and garlic.
- Top the noodle soup with the mushrooms, crisp shallots, roasted peanuts, chopped scallion, Thai basil leaves, and chili oil before being finished with a squeeze of lime juice if you'd like.
