Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion (any color)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- 3 medium-sized carrots, diced
- 2 celery ribs, diced
- 1 ½ lb (675 grams) potatoes, diced (approx 1 inch cubes)
- ½ tsp dried rosemary
- ½ tsp italian herbs
- ¼ tsp dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ½ – ¾ teaspoon fine salt, or according to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper, plus more to serve
- 3 cups (720 ml) low-sodium vegetable broth or water
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent.
- Add the diced carrots and celery, tossing until combined.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients (except for the peas), bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and cover with a lid. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- When the potatoes are tender, stir in the frozen peas and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the heat off, taste, and adjust the seasoning according to your liking.
- Optional: for a thicker broth, scoop out 1-2 cups of broth with potatoes, blend it, return it to the pot, and stir to combine. Be careful as the stew is still hot!
- Serve the potato stew with freshly ground black pepper, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, and freshly chopped parsley.
