Saharan West African Peanut and Pineapple Soup

Saharan West African Peanut and Pineapple Soup
  • 1 cup dried pineapple pieces
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1/2 sweet onion, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 1 leek, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 3 cups water
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup minced green onion
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic


  1. Soak dried pineapple in a bowl of water until softened, at least 30 minutes; drain.
  2. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir sweet onion, celery, and leek in hot oil until tender, about 4 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle curry powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt over the vegetables; stir to coat. Cook and stir until strongly fragrant, about 4 minutes more.
  4. Add peanut butter to the pot. Drain about half the juice from the tomatoes and discard; pour remaining tomatoes and juice into the pot. Cook until the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes. Pour 3 cups water into the pot; add drained pineapple.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer soup for 1 hour. Stir cream, green onion, and garlic into the soup.
