You’re going to LOVE this Hearty Potato Stew as it’s:

Since cutting out meat I personally miss those deep coloured and flavoured beef stews but this one really hits the spot.
The chunky veg gives it such a comforting feel.
The lentils and mushrooms gives it a meaty texture.
And the cacao powder and tamari gives it such a depth in colour and flavour.
One of the best parts about this recipe is there is minimal prep and you simply chuck all the ingredients into one-pot to cook down.
One-pot cooking is some of my favourite dinners to make!
Just look at the depth of colour in this meat-free stew!
It’s such a family friendly comforting dinner recipe to serve up on these cold evenings.
You could totally batch cook this for even cheaper and freeze it down for a healthy “ready meal” to have on those busier days.

Delicious❤️
Thank you Mandy 🙂
If u make this in slow cooker do u need to fry veg first??
No I would just whack it all in at the same time (no need to fry the veg first) on low for 7-8 hours or high for 3.5 to 4 hours. Enjoy
Delicious. Added some red wine and a bit of honey.
Glad you enjoyed it Caro 🙂
Really good -and money-saving too. Wasnt sure about using cocoa powder, but, yes, it gave it “body”. Thank you
