Directions Vegan Caribbean Stew
Directions
-
Bring brown rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.
Place collard greens and 2 peeled whole garlic cloves in a pot, add enough water to cover. Boil until collards are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.
Combine okra, tomatoes, chayote squash, and 2 crushed garlic cloves in a separate large pot, bring to a boil and cook until okra has thawed, about 5 minutes. Reduce to a simmer, season with ground ginger, dill weed, ground cumin, and cilantro to taste. Add collard greens, simmer until flavors have blended, at least 40 minutes (1 hour for best flavor).
Mash kidney beans together with tomato paste in a bowl, add to the stew. Stir in cooked rice and mix well. Add a spoonful of flour to thicken, if desired. Adjust seasonings to taste.
