Domoda
Gambian beef and pumpkin stew in a peanut-and-tomato sauce.

About Domoda
Kimberly Killebrew’s domoda follows a traditional Gambian peanut stew. This selection uses beef chuck and pumpkin, with fresh tomatoes, tomato paste and the source’s traditional tomato-bouillon base.
Natural unsweetened peanut butter makes the sauce rich and nutty. Onion and garlic add savoury depth, while optional Scotch bonnet chillies bring heat.
The sauce surrounds pieces of beef and tender pumpkin with a creamy consistency. The stew can stand alone, with steamed rice offered as an optional accompaniment.
