Almost Irish Stew




Source of Recipe


Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker_ by Robin Robertson


Recipe Introduction


With the slow cooker doing all the work, you will have time to make a loaf of soda bread to accompany this 'almost Irish' stew. Chunks of seitan may be substituted for the beans for a 'meatier' alternative.
Slow cooker size: 4 to 6 quart
Cook time; 6 to 8 hours
Setting: Low

Serves 4


List of Ingredients




1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups baby carrots, halved lengthwise
6 very small white potatoes, halved or quartered
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons tamari or other soy sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 large kale leaves or other dark leafy greens, chopped, cooked in simmering water to cover until tender, and drained


Recipe



1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, cover, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

2. Transfer the onion to a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Add the carrots, potatoes, garlic, beans, stock, bay leaf, wine, tamari, and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours.

3. About 10 minutes before serving, stir in the cooked kale. Serve hot.
