MAKE ME:

• Add the black beans, walnuts and mushrooms to a food processor, and blend until a mince texture is formed. Don’t over blends
• In a large pan, heat oil and add onion, garlic and carrot. Cook for 5 minutes on medium heat, until the onions are translucent. Add in the blitzed bean mince and cook, stirring regularly, until the mixture is dark in colour and soft. 
• Add the hot broth, tomato paste, Better Cheddar, dried thyme, and black pepper to taste. Mix until well combined. Sprinkle mixture with corn starch and stir until mixture thickens.
• Bring to a simmer and cook for another 5-10 mins, or until the carrots are soft. 
• Add in the frozen veggies and combine. Cook for a few more minutes until the frozen veggies are hot. 
• Serve over sourdough and enjoy!

 

TIP: 

If mixture is too thick, add in a splash of water, if too thin then add in more corn starch to thicken
