1 (14 ounce) can chopped tomato
2 teaspoons berbere, powder
1 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 medium onion
1 garlic clove, crushed (optional)

2 tablespoons sunflower oil or peanut oil
salt
pepper

Directions
In a large saucepan, brown the onion in the oil, then add the garlic and chilli (if using) and the berbere powder and fry for 2-3 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, peanut butter and tomato paste and stir until sauce is smooth.

Add the vegetables with enough water to cover them. Season to taste.

Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, for 30-45 minutes. During this time, stir every so often and add more water as needed.

At the end of cooking if the sauce is too thick, add more water; if too thin, boil to reduce. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary and serve.
