Hearty Vegan Summer Stew Recipes

VEGAN STEW

Steps:

• In a large heavy pot or dutch oven, heat 6 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onions, carrots and celery to the pot, along with the garlic, thyme, rosemary and bay leaves. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the leeks start to brown.
• Add the mushrooms and turnips or rutabaga. Pour in the wine and Worcestershire sauce and reduce the heat to low. Stir in the potatoes and cover the pot.
• Make the roux: In a measuring cup, heat the broth in the microwave until it's hot. Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the roux starts to darken, about 4-5 minutes. Gradually add the hot broth while whisking. Add the vinegar, molasses paprika and a dash of tabasco and whisk until smooth. Stir the roux into the stew.
• Simmer the stew, uncovered, until all the vegetables are tender, about 1 hour. If you feel the liquid is evaporating too quickly, you can cover it for a while. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with mashed potatoes or crusty bread and sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat a heavy bottom dutch oven over medium low heat and sautee the onion and carrot in a drop of oil or a splash of water until the onion is translucent. (omit oil to be WFPB & Plantricious compliant).
• Stir in the garlic and cook a few seconds until fragrant.
• Add the jackfruit pieces, thyme, bay and the red wine. Simmer until the wine is almost evaporated. (It's very important that you allow the wine to evaporate or the stew won't taste right).
• Meanwhile whisk the flour with the vegetable stock until combined and add it to the pot with the jackfruit. Bring to a simmer and stir in the paprika and cloves.
• Cook everything together for 45 minutes until the jackfruit is fork tender.
• Stir in the gnocchi, tomatoes and green peas and cook a few extra minutes until the gnocchi float to the top and the green peas are cooked through to your liking.
• Discard the thyme sprigs and whole cloves and season the stew to your taste with sea salt and black pepper.
