Time 1h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 lb) chicken, cleaned and cut into 16 portions
4 small onions, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon ginger paste
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic paste
21 fluid ounces chicken stock
1 lb smooth peanut butter
18 ounces water
1 (14 ounce) can plum tomatoes
1 hot red pepper, de-seeded and roughly chopped
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Place a large saucepan/casserole pot over a medium heat. Fry the chicken pieces, skin side down, for 10 minutes or until browned. Using tongs, turn the pieces of chicken over to seal the underside.
  • Stir in two of the onions, ginger and garlic for five minutes or until translucent and softened.
  • Pour in the chicken stock and season with salt. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • In a separate small saucepan, mix together the peanut butter with the water. Gently bring the mixture to the boil, stirring occasionally to.
  • prevent burning and a lumpy mixture. Gently simmer for 5-10 minutes or until the oil from the peanut butter settles on the surface.
  • In a food processor, blend together the remaining two onions with the tinned tomatoes and red pepper. Add this mixture to the chicken and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Finally, add the peanut butter mixture to the chicken pan and simmer for a further 30 minutes.
  • Optional - pour soup into a bowl and place rice ball in the middle.

I followed the recipe exactly but my soup turned out too watery. I think I'll reduce the amount of liquid next time.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
