Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1 can 15 oz chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 large potatoes diced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 bunch kale stems removed and leaves chopped
  • ¼ cup plant-based milk such as almond or soy
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, and fennel seeds, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Add chickpeas, diced potatoes, and tomato paste to the pot. Stir to coat the vegetables with the spices and tomato paste.
  • Pour in vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the chopped kale, plant-based milk, soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the kale is wilted and tender.
  • Season the stew with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy!
