Rainbow Vegetable Stew with Feta

by Sarah O'Neill

This stew is one of my absolute favourites and a firm fixture on our family’s weekly menu. It is super filling and warming, plus delicious reheated the next day.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large casserole dish, add the chopped onion and celery and cook until softened but not coloured. Add garlic and cook for a further minute – keep it moving to make sure it doesn’t burn.

Step 2

Add potatoes, squash, chopped peppers, courgette and aubergine to the pan, along with the oregano, canned tomatoes and vegetable stock.

Step 3

Bring to the boil, reduce heat and lightly simmer, for around 25-30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 4

Add the butterbeans and olives and cook for a further 5 minutes.

Step 5

Toast pine nuts – chuck them in a hot frying pan and toss them around a little – no oil needed. Keep them moving so they don’t burn, which can happen quickly so don’t get distracted!

Step 6

Serve into bowls, scattered with pine nuts (if using), crumbled feta and parsley or coriander, or serve the casserole dish as a delicious warming stew in the middle of your table for your guests to admire!
