Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Place raw peanuts in the oven to bake for about 15 minutes, checking occasionally to prevent burning.

In a pot, add peppers, tomatoes, onion, and a little bit of water.

Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until everything is very soft.

Once the peanuts have baked, allow them to cool and remove the peelings, blowing out the skins.

In a blender, blend the cooked tomatoes, onion, and peppers until smooth.

In a pot, heat palm oil and add the blended mixture, seasoning with salt, ginger paste, garlic paste, white pepper, and dried thyme. Stir well and cover to let it simmer.

Blend the baked peanuts until smooth and add them to the pot with the mixture.

Add some water and chopped leeks and parsley, and whole peppers if desired. Cover and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Add fried fish or any protein of your choice to the soup before serving.
