comfort essentials: ultimate veggie stew
Been playing about with this recipe on paper for a couple of weeks, and the past weekend I put it together. It is a hardy stew with plenty of flavor. I would serve it anytime of the year, but I have put this on my Autumn/Winter rotation, when the winds are howling, and the skies are covered in grey clouds full of snow. Easy/peasy to make (one pot) and makes a filling meal. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make comfort essentials: ultimate veggie stew
-
Step 1PREP/PREPARE
-
Step 2What will you need? This is a one-pot meal, a Dutch oven would be my first choice, but a good soup pot with a lid will work just fine.
-
Step 3This stew should feed a crew of about six; however, it is easy to cut it in half, or even by thirds.
-
Step 4How to store it? This soup will last 4 – 5 days, in the fridge, and several months if frozen.
-
Step 5Homemade Worcestershire Looking for a good Worcestershire without anchovies, or all those chemical preservatives? It is easy/peasy to make and tastes like the real thing. So yummy. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/diy-essentials-homemade-worcestershire-sauce.html?r=1

Step 6Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
-
Step 7Add the oil to a pot over medium-low heat, and add the celery, onions, mushrooms and carrots. Cover and sweat the veggies for about 20 minutes. Remember to keep the heat low. Open the lid and add the taters and dry spices. Gently stir, then cover for an additional 10 minutes.
-
Step 8Add the tomato sauce, beer, and veggie broth to a measuring cup or bowl, and whisk in the almond flour.
-
Step 9Add the liquid, along with the peas to the pot, bring up to the boil, and then quickly down to a simmer, gently stirring all the time, about 2 – 3 minutes.
-
Step 10In these last few minutes, taste for proper seasoning (salt, pepper, etc.).
