Within the Emerald Isle, a wealthy, savory Guinness stew—made with greens, beer, beef, and mashed potatoes—is frequent pub meals. I’ve been to Eire, and I like a Guinness beer each every now and then. So, I funneled that Irish inspiration into a very plant-based (vegan) model of Irish Guinness Stew, that includes tempeh and a great deal of veggies. It’s a simple, one-dish meal—good as a St. Patrick’s day recipe or any day of the yr—that’s pure consolation meals bliss. All it’s important to do to make this Vegan Guinness Stew is to create a thick vegetable stew with carrots, onions, celery, peas, and tempeh—with a tomato and Guinness beer broth. Place the stew within the backside of a baking or casserole dish. Then mash up some potatoes rapidly to “frost” the highest of the stew. Pop it into the oven to get all golden brown and melty, and you’ve got a wonderful one-dish meal on the desk very quickly.
Simply pair this Vegan Guinness Stew dish with a cabbage salad and also you’re set to go on your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, or a easy one-dish meal any night time of the week. In its place, you can also make particular person small “pies” of this stew by dividing the stew and mashed potatoes amongst 4 oven-proof soup bowls or soufflé dishes. That is an absolute favourite dish in my family. My boys adore it, as they did on their first journey to Eire years in the past. In case you’d like to alter up the components a bit, you possibly can attempt heirloom carrots in yellow or purple for an added little bit of coloration, and zucchini or broccoli as a substitute of the peas.
I exploit tempeh on this recipe, as it’s a fabulous plant-based protein made out of fermented soy and grain—it’s tremendous straightforward to simply cube and throw into casseroles, akin to this dish. You could find it at most supermarkets. If you wish to skip tempeh, you possibly can merely exchange it with diced tofu or one canned of beans, akin to chickpeas, kidneys, or white beans.
