Groundnut Soup with Fufu

Method

1. 1

   Simmer the chicken with onion, ginger and salt in water, 25 minutes.

2. 2

   Blend tomatoes and scotch bonnet; whisk peanut butter with hot broth until pourable.

3. 3

   Add both to the pot and simmer gently 35 minutes until oil beads on top.

   💡 The peanut sheen on the surface is the doneness signal, not the clock.

4. 4

   Beat cassava flour into simmering water off-heat until stretchy and smooth — quick fufu.

5. 5

   Serve a fufu ball in a wide bowl, flood with soup, and eat with your right hand — pinch, dip, swallow.
