Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 celery rib diced
  • 1 carrot peeled and diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 bell pepper diced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ¾ cup cooked white beans cannellini, navy, or white kidney beans
  • 1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoon harissa paste
  • 1 cup vegetable broth or up to 2 cups for a thinner consistency
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
  • Add the carrot, celery, and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring regularly, until the vegetables start to soften.
  • Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, harissa paste, and ½ teaspoon salt. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the spices are fragrant.
  • Add the diced bell pepper, white beans, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer. Let it cook uncovered for 30-40 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the flavors have melded together.
  • Taste the stew and adjust the salt if needed. Serve over cooked couscous, quinoa, or polenta, or enjoy with crusty bread.
