Gather @beef chuck{1%kg}, @white cabbage{300%g}, @onion{2} and @habanero chili{1}.

Brown the beef with onions; add @tomato paste{3%tbsp} and fry 3 minutes. ~{3%minutes}

Whisk @peanut butter{300%g} with hot water and pour in; add the whole habanero.

Simmer gently 50 minutes — peanut gravies stick, so stir the bottom honestly. ~{50%minutes}

Add @sweet potato{400%g}, @carrot{2} and cabbage; cook 25 minutes more until the oil rises red-gold. ~{25%minutes}

Serve over rice; the habanero goes to whoever earned it.
