As I mentioned yesterday, I have a lot of recipes in my arsenal that can get people through their Veganuary challenge. And this is definitely one of the good ones. The wine adds a rich depth of flavour, and those who are used to eating meat won’t notice its absence in this really hearty, winter-warming dish.
I promise.
Sam loves it when I cook with wine because I never use all of it when cooking so we have a tasty bottle sitting around, already opened and breathing.

I served mine with wild rice.
