Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Onion diced
- 1 cup Carrots diced
- 1 cup Celery diced
- 5 cloves Garlic minced
- 350 g Mushrooms cut into slices
- 2 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 3 tablespoon Flour
- 3 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 14.5 oz Tomato sauce 1 can
- ¾ cup Red wine
- 4 cups Vegetable stock
- 3 cups Potatoes cut into small chunks
- 2 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 2 Bay leaves
- Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start with peeling and cutting your vegetables into small cubes.
- Heat a large pot over medium heat with the oil and add the onion, celery, and carrots, and sautee mixing constantly for about 8 minutes, until the veggies soften.
- Make space for the minced garlic and add the garlic, cook it for about a minute, mixing constantly. Be careful not to burn it.
- Add the mushrooms along with a few pinches of salt and black pepper. Mix constantly and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the red wine, tomato paste, tomato sauce, dried thyme, dried oregano, soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar, and mix until well combined.
- Add the flour and mix until well combined. Cook for about a minute.
- Add the bay leaves and potatoes, and carefully add the vegetable stock along with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Bring the stew to a simmer over medium-high heat stirring every minute or so to prevent the veggies from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Add another pinch or two of salt and pepper and taste. Fix the flavoring by adding salt and pepper to your personal liking. Lower the heat to low and cook for as long as you can.
- You can cook it until the potatoes are fork-tender. Remove the bay leaves from the pot and serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish!
Notes
- Adding salt and black pepper is very important for the flavor of this stew. Add salt and black pepper to your personal taste. I recommend adding a few pinches at a time until you get the perfect balance of flavors.
- Feel free to use your favorite veggies for this! You can add anything that you have on hand
- You can make this spicy by adding chili flakes to the stew while you make the stew or when you serve it individually.
- Add your favorite protein to the stew like cooked lentils, cooked chickpeas, frozen peas, or cooked beans. Canned white beans or canned black beans will work great!
