SERVES 4 - Peanut butter, tomato, chilli and pumpkin create a deliciously hearty blend with a nice bit of heat – yum!
Ingredients
• 1 large onion, finely diced

• 800ml vegan stock
• 2 tsp ground cumin (optional)

1. Fry the onion and the fresh chilli until the onion is soft and golden.
2. Add the garlic and chilli powder and fry for a further 1-2 minutes.
3. Stir in the tomatoes, peanut butter, tomato purée and pumpkin (or sweet potato or butternut squash), before adding the stock and cumin if using.
4. Bring to the boil and then simmer for 35-45 minutes until reduced and thickened and the sweet potato is soft.
