Caribbean Vegetable Stew

By: M B.

Description:
Time:	45 min (20 min to prepare, 25 min to cook)
Meal type:	Main Dish
Ethnicity:	American
Number of Servings:	4
Ingredients:
1 each sprigs of cilantro (optional) 2 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro 3 tablespoon fresh lime juice 2 cups fresh or frozen sliced okra 2 cups undrained fresh or canned tomatoes 3 cups diced sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch cubes 2 cups water 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root 1 each fresh chile, minced (seeded for a milder "hot") or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne 3 cups chopped cabbage 2 cups chopped onions
Directions:
* In a nonreactive pot, saute the onions in the broth on medium heat for 4 or 5 minutes. Add the cabbage and the chile or cayenne and continue to saute, stirring often, until the onions are translucent, about 8 minutes. * Add the grated ginger and the water, cover the pot, and bring to a boil. Stir in the sweet potatoes, sprinkle with salt, and simmer for 5 or 6 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender. Add the tomatoes, okra, and lime juice. Simmer until all of the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and add more salt to taste. Sprinkle the stew with chopped peanuts. Top with a few sprigs of cilantro, if you like.
