Mango-Coconut Curry
Curries are the epitome of comfort and cozy vibes during the dead of winter, but let’s face it- we crave summer during that time. This mango-coconut curry satisfies the depth and richness that’s necessary during sub-zero temperatures while exuding tropical vibes to get you through an extra 6 weeks of winter. Serve with your favorite protein (crispy tofu for two, please) and a wedge of lime for a perfect weeknight meal inside.
West African Peanut Stew
This West African Peanut Stew is equal parts creamy, tangy, and rich- making it the perfect meal to serve during Kwanzaa (or any other day during the brutal winter months). Like many stews, this one requires little prep and a mostly hands-off cooking method. Chickpeas and greens are added for extra protein and freshness. Lime juice is essential to balance the rich and decadent flavors this spiced tomato stew brings to the table (with crushed peanuts for crunch, of course).
Butter(pea)nut Curry
If you’re feeling blue and need some comfort, a hug, or just a meal that warms your soul- make this curry. Serve it with some rice and be ready for an internal hug that you didn’t know you needed.
