BASE CAMP
Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the onion chunks and fry for 5-6 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. While the onion is frying, rinse and cut the potato into small bite-sized chunks.
LOAD THE STEW
When the onions are soft, add the grated garlic, the potato chunks, ½ the rub, the tomato passata, the peanut butter, 400ml of boiling water, and the stock. Mix until the peanut butter is fully combined. Reduce the heat and leave to simmer for 15-20 minutes until slightly thickened and the potato is soft. Add a splash of warm water if the sauce reduces too quickly.
TOAST PEANUTS
Place the peanuts in a non-stick pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and roughly chop.
SIZZLING VENISON
While the stew is simmering, rinse the parsley and the kale. Roughly shred the kale. Chop the rinsed parsley. Pat the venison dry with paper towel, cut into bite-sized chunks, and coat in the remaining rub and a drizzle of oil. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the venison chunks and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preference. When the stew has 2-3 minutes remaining, add the shredded kale and the browned venison. On completion, season with a sweetener of choice (to taste), salt, and pepper.
ROTI TIME
Return the pan, wiped down, to a medium heat. When hot, warm the roti for 30-60 seconds per side until heated through and lightly toasted.
