Prep Time: 10 - 15 minutes
Total Time: 10 - 15 minutes
- Melt the coconut oil to the pot on medium to high heat and add the onions. Braise until golden brown.
- Add the garlic and sauté for a few minutes.
- Add the tomatoes to the pot and sauté until soft.
- Add the concentrated liquid vegetable stock to a separate jug and add 1 cup of boiling hot water, stir and then add to the pot.
- Add the sweet potatoes to the pot.
- Add the peas, carrots and corn to the pot.
- Add the rest of the water to the pot.
- Add thyme, basil, parsley, leaves of the rosemary, paprika, turmeric, tomato paste, crushed chili, salt and black pepper. Cook until the carrots and sweet potato are semi soft.
- Then in a separate jug add 2 teaspoon of cornstarch to 1 cup of coconut milk and stir until the cornstarch is dissolved (if it hasn't dissolved completely, that's ok, it'll cook away). Add this to the pot.
- Add the chickpeas and cook until the sweet potatoes and carrots are completely soft, make sure you stir occasionally as the cornstarch thickens the stew and sticks to the pot.
- Stew is ready to serve.
