Potatoes and Vegetables Stew

Larisa Iernutan

In Romania, potato stew is one of the traditional dishes that everyone knows. Whether you choose to prepare a potato stew with or without meat, the potatoes stew is an ideal combination between a filling and tasty dish with a light texture.

If you choose to cook Potatoes and Turkey Stew, as I did, you will have a light meal, but also full of protein, vitamins and minerals. I chose to use turkey meat, but Potatoes Stew can also be cooked with other types of meat, such as pork, beef or even pieces of sausage.

1 CrockPot Express Multicooker/Large pot

Ingredients

Red potatoes
Onion
3 pcs garlic cloves
Red pepper
Carrots
500 g turkey breast
Homemade tomato juice
Oil
Salt
Pepper
Red paprika
Bay leaf
Optional: cornstarch

Instructions

Cut the turkey breast into pieces and place it into a bowl, adding olive oil, salt and pepper and set it aside while you prepare your vegetables;
Chop the onion, the garlic and the red pepper;
Slice the carrots (or cut them however you like);
Start the multi-cooker, remove the lid and Select the BROWN/SOUTE program for 10 min;
Once the program is ready, add some oil. Then add the turkey breast. After several minutes, add the chopped vegetables (onion, garlic, red pepper). Add salt, pepper and paprika;
When the program ends, add homemade tomato juice and the bay leaf and cook them using POULTRY – 25 min (I like to use more time for cooking the turkey than the chicken);
When the program ends, add the potatoes, peeled and diced. Also, add the slices of carrots. Add some water, so that all the ingredients in the pot can boil in the water. Cook them using STEW – 10-15 minutes.
Optional: if you think that the result is too liquid, add a spoon of cornstarch mixed with homemade tomato juice and pour it over the stew. Mix it well in the pot to make sure you have a homogeneous composition.
!!! Important!!! You can make this dish using the Slow-cooker function of the Crockpot. If to choose to do so, follow the steps 1-5. After that, you can add all the remaining ingredients and boil the stew using the Slow-cooker function.
