• 2 cups chopped onions
• 2 tablespoons peanut oil or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic, pressed
• 2 cups chopped cabbage
• 3 cups cubed sweet potatoes (1-inch cubes)
• 3 cups tomato juice
• 1 cup apple juice or 1 cup apricot juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon grated peeled gingerroot, fresh
• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, fresh (optional)
• 2 chopped tomatoes
• 1 1/2 - 2 cups chopped okra
• 1/2 cup natural-style peanut butter

1. Saute the onions in the oil for about 10 minutes. Stir in the cayenne and garlic and saute for a couple more minutes. Add the cabbage and sweet potatoes and saute, covered for a few minutes. Mix in the juices, salt, ginger, cilantro, and tomatoes. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are tender. Add the okra and simmer for 5 minutes more. Stir in the peanut butter, place the pan on a heat diffuser, and simmer gently until ready to serve. Add more juice or water if the stew is too thick.
