Cook the rice as usual. Wash the spinach thoroughly and remove the stem ends. Dice the onion and add it to a large pan over medium heat, then sauté it in a little water. The bottom of the pan should never dry out. Gradually add the spinach to the pan, season with pepper and chili, and cover. Cut the tomatoes into 1 cm cubes and add to the pan. Simmer gently for 8-10 minutes with the lid on. Turn off the heat and stir the peanut butter into the sauce. If necessary, add a splash of water or stir in a little more peanut butter until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. Adjust seasoning if desired. Serve with the basmati rice.
