Ingredients

  • two or three pounds of wild boar or pork (any part); cut into bite-sized or serving-sized pieces
  • salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • a few onions, chopped
  • a few tomatoes, peeled and chopped
  • one cup peanut butter (natural or homemade), or similar amount of fresh or roasted peanuts
  • oil for frying

Directions

1

If using peanuts instead of peanut butter:

2

Roast the peanuts in a baking pan in a hot oven, or on the stove in a large skillet, turning often. Remove the skins from the peanuts and mash them with a mortar and pestle, mince them with a knife, crush them with a rolling pin, or use a chop them fine in a food-processor.

3

Heat a few spoonfulls of oil in a large pot. Add the meat and fry it until it is browned but not done. Reduce heat. Add water, salt, and pepper and simmer for about half an hour.

4

Add the tomatoes and onions and contine to simmer until the meat is done and becoming tender.

5

Remove some of the liquid and mix it with the peanut butter to make a smooth sauce. Add this to the meat-tomato-onion mixture.

6

Continue to simmer on a very low heat until the meat is very tender.
