Preparation:

This simple goulash recipe is from "Vegetarian Cooking," an RD Home Handbook Publication. Drain the beans, cover with plenty of fresh water, bring to a boil, uncovered and boil fast for 10 minutes. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 40 minutes or until soft. Drain, reserving liquid. Heat the oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the onion in the oil for 4 to 5 minutes or until soft. Add the garlic, chile, peppers and mushrooms and cook for five minutes. Cover and cook the mixture for 15-20 minutes over a very gentle heat. Add the cooked beans, potato, paprika, thyme, tomato puree and miso to the stew. Simmer gently for 30 minutes, adding a little bean liquid if necessary. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot with rice or noodles.
