Peanut gravy is a rich, creamy sauce originating from West African cuisine, often used to elevate rice, vegetables, or meat dishes. Its base typically includes ground peanuts or peanut butter, blended with onions, garlic, tomatoes, and spices like chili or ginger for a harmonious mix of savory and mildly sweet flavors. High in protein and healthy fats thanks to the peanuts, this gravy can provide sustained energy and essential nutrients like magnesium and vitamin E. However, it may also be calorie-dense depending on preparation methods and additional oils used. Some variations include coconut milk or meat stock, which can affect its nutritional profile. Peanut gravy is a versatile choice, accommodating vegan, vegetarian, or meat-filled diets, and its bold flavors make it a beloved comfort food across various cuisines beyond its original roots. Moderation is recommended for individuals monitoring fat intake or calorie consumption.
