This alfredo is a much lighter take on the traditional version, using low fat creme fraiche in place of cream, and reducing the amount of parmesan cheese. There is also the addition of squash, which provides some fibre and essential vitamins, giving this dish a nutritious boost!
Tofu West African Peanut Stew
This is a staple dish in West Africa! It's also known as Mafa, Domoda, or Ground Nut Stew. This isn't quite an authentic African recipe, but more a DropChef take, as traditionally this stew can be very spicy!
