Spinach Stew

-2 small onions, finely chopped
-2 Tbs oil
-2 tomatoes, peeled, and sliced
-1 green bell pepper, chopped
-2 lbs fresh spinach, chopped, OR 2 small packages frozen spinach
-1 tsp salt
-2 chili peppers OR 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
-4 Tbs peanut butter

1) In a heavy skillet or stew pot, saute onions in moderately hot oil
until golden.
2) Stir in tomatoes and bell pepper. After a minute or so, add
spinach, salt and hot pepper. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 5
minutes.
3) Thin peanut butter with several tablespoons of warm water to make a
smooth paste. Add to the pot. Continue cooking for another 10 - 15
minutes, stirring frequently, and keeping a close watch to prevent
burning. Add small amounts of water as necessary so that the stew
doesn't stick to the pot bottom.
4) Serve with rice or a stiff porridge.
