CARLA'S AFRICAN GROUNDNUT SOUP
Carla's winning dish from Top Chef All Stars. I love Top Chef, but it's rare to see a vegetarian dish (unless the challenge is to cook for a vegetarian and then all the chefs complain), much less a vegetarian dish that wins. Got the recipe on Bravo's website. I'm putting it here for safekeeping. I have o idea how many this serves or how long it takes, so I guessed.

- Place peanut butter into medium bowl and slowly whisk in 1-2 cups of broth until mixture is smooth. Pour mixture back into pot with broth.
- Toss together cooked beans, sweet potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, parsley and mint. Season with salt, spice mixture and lime zest to taste.
- In shallow bowl, pour broth, then spoon vegetable mixture into the center.
- Garnish with chopped peanuts, lime juice, lime salt (zest of 2 limes mixed with ¼ cup Malden sea salt), and sweet potato chips. (Cut whole sweet potatoes into ½" thick pieces. Use peeler to make thin ribbons. Fry in 300 degree canola oil. Salt to taste.).

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:
- Bring water and peanut butter to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Turn heat down and simmer for 1 hour, skimming surface foam and stirring as necessary. Add tomatoes and tomato paste. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cut up vegetables and set aside, covered.
- Meanwhile, over medium-high heat, heat olive oil in Dutch oven. Salt beef and chicken well, sprinkle with cayenne pepper (be careful, there!), then brown chicken on all sides, followed by stewing beef, adding a little more oil if necessary. Pour peanut butter soup over meats and bring to a boil, stirring well to incorporate. Turn heat down to low and simmer for at least two hours, stirring regularly to prevent sticking. Toward the last 3/4 hour add the green peppers, scallions, eggplant, celery and onions. (NOTE: It is not necessary to sauté vegetables first.) At end of cooking time stir in crab meat, and correct seasonings as necessary.
- Prepare rice according to package directions to yield 4 cups hot cooked rice.
- To serve, mound rice on large platter, ladle soup over rice and sprinkle with parsley (I prefer the flat-leaf variety) and grated coconut. Pass a small bowl of cayenne pepper, and offer sliced tropical fruit to accompany soup - mango, papaya, pineapple, guava, banana.
- Can be prepared in advance; add crab meat just before serving and heat through.
