This mushroom Bourguignon with creamy butter bean mash NEEDS to make its way to your table. Packed with meaty rich umami flavours and a whole bottle of wine, cus why the hell not.
An easy one pot stew that can be made a head of time, a great celebratory meal to make or if your just wanting to impress!
Keeping the mushrooms a decent size replaces the beef chunks, and using a combo of miso and tamari gives the stew a rich meaty taste without the meat! The alcohol will be burned off during cooking so no worries about getting drunk on the stew! It’s a great batch cook freezer friendly meal, that can be done on the stove top or oven.

Bourguignon

- Give it a good stir, bring to a boil, pop on a lid and simmer for 45 mins on the hob or in the oven, taking the lid off for the last 15. The carrots should be tender and the sauce reduced to around 2/3rds, continue to cook till this has been achieved.
- In a bowl mix together the arrowroot and 2 tbsp water. Start with adding half the mix to bourginon and stir for 30s on the heat. Keep adding until you have a thick glossy sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Sprinkle on the parsley.
