Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 3 carrots
  • 3 celery sticks
  • 3 parsnips
  • 1 cup diced swede
  • 1 leek
  • ½ cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Homemade dumplings

  • 100 g softened butter
  • 200 g self raising flour
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 tablespoons cold water

Instructions

  • Start by preparing your vegetables. Peel them, and chop into similar sized small pieces. Make sure to grate or cut the garlic finely.
  • Heat up the olive oil on medium heat in a pot on the stove. Add diced onion and garlic, and sauté for a few minutes until translucent.
  • Add sliced mushrooms, and sauté until the mushroom has shrunk.
  • Add all diced vegetables, tomato sauce, vegetable stock and seasoning. Stir to combine, and cover the pot with a lid. Leave the stew to simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the root vegetables have softened.
  • To make dumplings: Combine soft butter, seasoning and self-raising flour in a mixing bowl. Knead a dough with your hands. Add one tablespoon of water at a time until the dough sticks together. Divide into 6 equal pieces, and roll them into small balls. Set them to the side.
  • Add the frozen peas to the stew, and stir. Add the dumplings on top of the stew, and cover with a lid. Leave the stew to simmer for a further 10 minutes to cook the dumplings.
