How to Make Vegan Kidney Bean And Mushroom Curry

  1. If using dried kidney beans, soak them in water overnight. Drain and rinse.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  3. Add 1 chopped onion and 2 minced cloves of garlic and sauté until softened (about 5 minutes).
  4. Add 1 pound mushrooms, sliced, and cook until softened and slightly browned (about 5 minutes).
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons of curry powder, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric, and 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (optional, adjust to taste). Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  6. Add 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans (or 1 cup cooked dried kidney beans), 1 (14.5-ounce) can of diced tomatoes, 1 cup vegetable broth, and 1/2 cup soy milk (or almond/rice milk).
  7. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking. Stir occasionally and add more water or plant-based milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with rice or naan bread.
