750 ml hot veggie stock

2 large sweet potatoes (approx 300 g. each)
•
Half a cup tomato puree or 1 cup fresh chopped tomatoes
•
2 large tbsp peanut butter (crunchy or smooth both work, or make your own in 5 mins here)
•
2 tbsp maple syrup (you can also use honey, but then it won’t be vegan of course)
•
2 tbsp soy sauce
•
2 tbsp vinegar (any sort, lemon juice can also be used instead)

Salt and pepper for taste

1 tsp pepper

1/2 lime, juiced (great if you have it, don’t worry if you don’t)

Peanuts to garnish

Go a bit wild with the herbs - make it your signature dish by throwing in any and all of the following herbs that you have: basil, parsley, coriander, oregano
•
Use roughly half a cup of each if using fresh, or 1 tbsp when using dried. Dried herb mixes like ‘herbes de provence’ are also any easy choice here.
