Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1/2 a Sweet onion, diced
  • 4 Cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 1 Leek, sliced
  • 1 1/2 Pounds Baby bella mushrooms, chopped
  • 2 Carrots, chopped
  • 1 Stalk Celery, diced
  • 1 Cup Green Cabbage, chopped
  • 8 Ounces Vegan stout beer, I used Sierra Nevada
  • 4 Cups Vegetable broth
  • 2 Sprigs Fresh Thyme
  • 2 Bay leaves, dried
  • 1 Tablespoon Agave syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 2 Tablespoons Water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot on medium high.
  • Add the onion, garlic and leek to the pot. Sauté, reducing heat as needed, until the onion is translucent. About 2-3 minutes.
  • Now add the mushrooms, and stir to combine everything. Sauté the mushrooms until they release their liquid and then they start to brown. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Then add the carrots, celery and cabbage. Sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour in the stout and stir to combine. Simmer until a lot of the stout has been absorbed, 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the vegetable broth, thyme, bay leaves, agave and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Stir to combine everything.
  • Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for about 15 minutes.
  • Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl, then add it to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Put the cover back on and simmer for another 5-7 minutes or until the stew has thickened slightly. It will thicken more as it cools.
  • Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Then taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes if desired!

Notes

I served this stew with my Garlic Chive Cream Cheese Vegan Mashed Potatoes!
