Where peanut farmer Judith Harry lives in Mkanda, Malawi, most farmers subsist below the poverty line: 'They earn below $1 every day and do not have enough food to last them the whole year. I start work at 3.30 every morning. Last year I grew enough groundnuts to make 14,000 jars of peanut butter and I have been able to build my family a brick house with concrete foundations and a tin roof.'Serves 4-6
4 medium sized sweet potatoes or half a pumpkin, washed and peeled and cut into pieces
60g peanut flour
pinch salt
a handful fairtrade peanuts, chopped
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Add the sweet potatoes or pumpkin pieces and cook until almost tender. Drain the water off once they are cooked. Add the peanut flour and salt and mash everything together. Stir continuously, and continue cooking for a further few minutes until the mixture is almost dry. Garnish with chopped peanuts.
