  Heat the oil or water in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the
  onion, cover, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the bell
  pepper and garlic, cover, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  Stir in the sugar, ginger, cumin, cinnamon, and cayenne, and cook,
  stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the sweet potatoes and stir to coat.
  Stir in the tomatoes, broth, and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then
  reduce the heat to low and simmer until the vegetables are soft,
  about 30 minutes.
  
  About 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, stir in the
  kidney beans and simmer until heated through.
  
  Remove about 1/4 cup of the hot broth and place it in a small bowl.
  Blend in the peanut butter, stirring until smooth, then stir the
  mixture into the stew. If a thicker consistency is desire, puree
  about 1 cup of the stew in a blender or food processor and stir back
  into the pot, or use an immersion blender to puree some of the stew
  right in the pot.
  
  Taste and adjust the seasonings. Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts and
  serve.
