Country captain from Saveur Magazine, April 2009 (#119) (page 97)

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Wish I had read PinchOfSalt's comment before I cooked this last night. It certainly was a lot of chopping, a food processor would definitely have helped. Taste-wise, it was not much better than the much simpler Better Homes and Gardens version that I normally used, but the sauce did a lot more body because of all the vegetables. I did not cook it as long because we were hungry. Also, I agree that almonds as called for in my normal recipe are better than peanuts.

    This was a big hit and a great way to feed a crowd. It is just a tiny bit spicy but very full-flavored. Each of the steps is very simple but there is enough chopping (especially if you are doubling the recipe, as I did) to suggest using a food processor instead of practicing knife skills. I substituted diced tomatoes, which worked very well. Also I used sliced blanched almonds instead of peanuts in the garnish, as that is what I had on hand and other Country Captain recipes in my collection call for almonds.
