A hearty African peanut stew that's super easy to make and great for peanut butter lovers. It can be made vegetarian or with chicken. In a pinch, feel free to use vegetable or corn oil for peanut oil, powdered ginger for fresh, water for stock, etc.

2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced

5 cups chicken stock
3 small sweet potatoes, cut into chunks
1 (16-ounce) can of chopped tomatoes, in liquid
