Time to share another one of my comforting West African recipes. As in a one-pot black-eyed beans and sweet potato recipe (aka bean and sweet potato pottage). This one pot sweet potato and black-eyed peas stew is one of the most delicious African street foods out there. Seriously I can remember eating so many huge sandwiches stuffed to the brim with this and licking my palm oil fingers clean at the end. It is the sort of meal that if you finish it you would be hard pressed to want to eat anything else that day.

Cutting board set. Knife set . Measuring jugs or cups. Saucepan.
And it is easy to make, like a lot of one pot meals. Sure, it takes some time, but that is just cooking time. You don’t have to be there, you can put it in the oven or a slow cooker. Pretty much thrown in the beans, palm oil, fish and onion into the pot, simmer for a while and add in the sweet potato towards the end. This one pot stew is pretty adaptable too. If you’d prefer plantain instead of sweet potato, chuck it in. If you can’t find dried fish, well what about mushrooms? Or some meat? Or whatever else you think would add lovely flavours. West African flavours – is the spot on my blog where I share both traditional Sierra Leonean recipes and West African fusion recipes. If you like this recipe then try my one pot bean and plantain stew (bean and plantain pottage).
