Notes
Goes really well with my fluffy vegan cornbread!
This looks like the ultimate wintery stew – I’m definitely making it, although I’ll probs add a good 5 times more smoked paprika than specified because, erm, I have a problem.
This contains the holy trinity: it’s comforting and cozy food, easy to make and I’ve already got all the ingredients in the cupboard.
This was my first time successfully making a vegan recipe and it was delicious! I will definitely be making this again. ?
Just made it today and it was delicious! Will definitely be making again. We had it with white rice?
This stew was a great reward after two hours walking in the cold! Yay Canadian weather?
I’d say! <3
Really delicious! I’d let the chickpeas simmer with the tomatoes as long as possible to make sure they soften but everything else is perfect. The smoked paprika adds a lovely touch of smokiness.
