Preparation Time

<strong>Poultry</strong>

The easiest stew in the world to warm up to! Deeply flavoured with sun-baked spices, buttery with peanuts and silky with coconut milk, this ultra-fortifying favourite of Mali, Senegal and the Gambia is pure velvet on the tongue. Tender chicken and carrots bathe in a delightfully rich sauce, while leafy greens, added at the last minute, wilt and sidle into a base of long-grain rice. Squeeze on some citrus and you’ve got a whole continent of pleasure in just 20 minutes of cooking.
