Ingredients for 4 people

  • 400 g vegan chicken pieces
  • 400 g oyster mushrooms, torn into coarse pieces
  • 300 g mushrooms, quartered
  • 330 ml brown ale
  • 3 onion, in half rings
  • 2 cloves garlic, cloves, crushed
  • 2 slices gingerbread, slices
  • 10 tbsp mustard
  • 1.000 g potatoes, peeled, in chunks
  • 400 ml vegetable stock
  • 2 leaves bay leaf
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 10 tbsp flour
  • 2 tbsp plant-based butter
  • 10 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • to taste salt and pepper

Method

  1. Melt the plant-based butter in a casserole. Cook the onion for 8 min over low heat until sweet.
  2. Add the mushrooms and oyster mushrooms and fry for 6 min until the liquid has evaporated.
  3. Add the garlic and fry for 1 min. Sprinkle the flour over it and stir for 1 min.
  4. Pour in the brown ale and stock. Stir loose and bring to the boil.
  5. Add the bay leaf, thyme and gingerbread slices. The gingerbread falls apart by itself and thickens the sauce.
  6. Stew gently for 20 min with the lid slightly ajar.
  7. Meanwhile boil the potatoes for 20 min in salted water. Drain.
  8. Fry the vegan chicken pieces for 5 min in a separate pan and stir them into the stew at the end.
  9. Stir in the mustard and vinegar. Fish out the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper.
  10. Serve with the potatoes.

Flemish-style stew

Tip

Diced seitan works just as well here as the chicken pieces and is less processed. Fry it briefly first.

Check the label

Not every variety of these products is vegan.

  • brown ale: not every beer is vegan, some are fined with isinglass or gelatine, just like wine
  • plant-based butter: check that the margarine contains no milk components
  • gingerbread: much gingerbread contains honey, choose a version without
