Sounds a bit weird but definitely worth the try!
Olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon grated ginger
½ onion in small cubes
1.5 liter chicken or vegetable stock
1 sweet potatoes in cubes
1 can crushed tomatoes
½ cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
Pepper
Pour a bit of olive oil into a big pot and fry the garlic, ginger and onion for a few minutes. Pour in the stock, the sweet potatoes and the tomatoes and let it cook for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes take out about a cup full of the soup and pour it into a bowl. Add the peanut butter and mix well. Then pour it back into the soup. Cook for about 10 more minutes, blend the soup, and serve!
