African Night
I made a great African stew today, complete with sweet potatoes, roasted cauliflower, cardamom, clove and peanuts. I served it over millet and quinoa that I cooked together and with an arugula salad that I lightly dressed with fresh lemon juice and homemade pickled onions. The pickled onions are raw since I did not blanch them or cook the brine.
The sweet stew over the nutty grains with the crisp, bitter greens and the vinegary onions were an awesome combination. The flavors complement each other very well.
