Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large, lidded saucepan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 6-8 mins until beginning to soften. Tip in the root veg and cook for 5 mins, stirring, then add the garlic, spices and peanut butter. Cook for 1 min until fragrant and the peanut butter has softened.
  2. Add the passata, fill each carton a quarter full with water, then swirl it into the pan. Season well, bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 45-50 mins until the veg has softened and the stew has thickened slightly.
  3. Stir in the kidney beans and spinach. Cook for 2-3 mins over a low heat, stirring, until the spinach has wilted. Season to taste, then scatter with coriander and serve with toasted sourdough, if you like.
