Thank you Mandy, so glad you liked it. I must make it again soon as budget friendly as well as tasty:-)

Lovely dish and will definitely be making again. Thanks!

Thanks Rachel, a woman after my own heart, I’m always using what I have:-)

I changed up the veg adding zucchini, eggplant, silverbbeat and sweet potatoes and used vegan worcestershire sauce. Was delicious…..made again a few days later.

So glad you like it Angie, thank you for taking the time to comment:-)

Delicious!! Definately one for the winter rotation. Thank you for sharing ❤️

So glad you like the recipe Gozza, hope your son likes it too. Maybe you could sub the mushroom with aubergine as have a similar texture.

I made this without the tabasco at the weekend and we both loved it – I adjusted the portions slightly as there are only two of us, but we still had enough for day two.
I’ll definitely make this again – possibly this weekend as number one son (vegan) is coming home from uni for the Christmas break, and it will be good to have something almost ready when we get back. he hates mushrooms though, so I’ll have to think of something else to replace that!

Hi Vi, it does say in the recipe “Stir in the frozen peas and cook until the vegetables are tender (about another ½ hour).” I can’t know exactly how long it will take to cook in your particular slow cooker with the size of vegetable chunks that you have cooked. This is my most popular vegan recipe so luckily others do think that the flavours work well, I’m sorry that it didn’t appeal to your taste. Perhaps a thorough read of the recipe will help you understand the timings and how it will taste in future.

It took way longer to cook than suggested and the flavours didn’t work. Don’t think I’ll be making this again.

So glad you like the recipe and made it your own! Those additions sound fab!

Really good recipe and so much like a traditional stew, thanks for sharing. Added a bit of miso and garlic too.

Awesome, so glad you love it:-)

Love it!

Hi Betty, I’ve never frozen it myself but there’s no reason why you couldn’t freeze it.

I have just made this stew and it’s lovely can the rest we frozen please?

Yes, corrected now than you:-)

Hi Michelle, I can’t vouch for what it will be like as I’ve never left it that long but I would take a chance.

Excellent Wendy, so glad you like it:-)

Love this recipe and make it every week. It’s a great alternative to beef stew for vegetarians. All the flavors, minus the meat.

Hi, Kylie, sorry, when I get a comment it appears in a table with no other context so I can’t see the previous comments. Now I’ve gone back to look, I had a brain fuzz and accidentally used the word vegan instead of gluten free.

Flour and cornflour are both Vegan.
Flour doesn’t have to be substituted as it isn’t an animal product.
Great recipe though

I’m sorry I don’t understand, this is a vegan dish.

Why does flour make it not vegan?

Hi Krystal, no it wasn’t but I’ve now added a vegan alternative using cornflour in the notes. Sorry for the confusion!

Hi Cathy, you could do but you’re replacing the mushrooms with something similar to the carrot & parsnip so it would change the dynamics of this dish. I would have a trial run before Christmas to see if you like it. Do let me know how you get on!

Thank you Liz, so glad you enjoyed it! I haven’t frozen it before but can’t see any reason why you couldn’t!

Made this today ,it was amazing ,defo be on my menu ,especially with winter just round the corner ,Have to say the smell of it cooking was lovely too ….Thank you

Forgot to ask …could I freeze this

Thank you so much Donna so glad you’re enjoying it:-)

Thank you so much Donna so glad you’re enjoying it:-)

Thank you. You need to keep it out on the work top if you can:-)

I do love a good stew at this time of year and this looks delicious. I really should use my slow cooker more, but it’s stock at the back of the cupboard and always seems too much of a faff to get out.

Hi Catriana, I don’t know the answer to that as I haven’t tried doing this. But this article might help: https://www.livestrong.com/article/469882-how-to-convert-crock-pot-cook-time-to-oven-cook-time/

Thank you Fiona, it is yummy:-)

Thanks for sharing such a delicious recipe with us.

Thank you, I hope he likes it:-)

Thanks Corina. Yes Chestnut Mushrooms are so much better than white mushroom I’ve found:-)

It sounds really tasty and I’m sure the chestnut mushrooms were a great replacement for the beef. I’d also love it with the butterbeans too!

Thanks Gill, I do hope you give it a try:-)

Camilla, the chestnut mushrooms and all the flavours and spice sound really tasty. I wouldn’t normally make a vegan stew but this recipe looks so handy if entertaining vegans. I’m pretty tempted to try it, even if it is! Lovely.

Thanks Choclette, dumplings sound like a great addition:-)
